More about this artwork

The painting presents an intriguing bust of a figure with a serene yet enigmatic expression. The subject's skin is painted with a multitude of colors splattered across, giving the appearance of either being in the process of creation or deconstruction. Notable are the reds around the eyes and lips, adding a hint of vividness and perhaps emotion. The bust is cut off at the shoulders, and the base resembles a rough, textured garment or collar, adding an unfinished, raw aspect to the piece. The figure's eyes are closed, which alongside the calm pose, gives a sense of peace or introspection. The overall use of color and form strikes a balance between realism and abstraction, inviting the viewer to explore a deeper, possibly introspective narrative.

Gediminas Endriekus was born in Plunge, western Lithuania, on 21 September 1982. From early childhood he liked to mould. In 2005 he graduated in sculpture from the Faculty of Fine Arts of Vilnius Academy of Arts in Telšiai. In 2007, he moved to Vilnius, where he got a job in a bronze foundry and started to work intensively. In 2015, he held his first solo exhibition of bronze sculptures, Prologue. In 2016, he joined the Lithuanian Artists' Union.

Gediminas Endriekus is very introverted in his work, and creates spontaneously by sketching. Later he selects his best works and brings them to life in bronze. From sketch to finished work, he completes the work himself. 

Gediminas' works are dominated by standing, sitting abstracted human figures, creatures resembling animals or plants, sometimes transitioning into geometric forms, soft, angular, dynamic, others frozen in motion. Gediminas's main concerns are the question of the origin of man and the meaning of his existence. Thus, his works are often philosophical, reflecting emotions and dilemmas of being.

"Each piece has a meaning that I cannot describe. The thoughts about the work clear up after a while, like cloudy water settling, the understanding comes later. When I finish a work, I can rarely say the title right away, I have to slowly remember it. The meaning of the work doesn't have to be encapsulated in the word. Sometimes you try to talk about the work and all you hear coming out are the ordinary forms of words that are normally used on these occasions. Then the real meaning of the work recedes with every spoken word. No matter how banal it may sound, the meaning has to be felt, not put into words," the artist says about his work.
