More about this artwork

In the painting "Matriarchy" by Sniegė, numerous female faces occupy the canvas, each depicted with unique, yet subdued facial expressions. The artist uses a restricted palette dominated by earthy tones, while the subtle use of light and shadow gives each face dimension and a sense of individuality. The faces vary in orientation, some looking directly out, while others are angled or partially hidden behind another. Each face is stylistically similar with elongated features, large eyes, and gentle, soft lines that suggest a quiet, reflective demeanor. The expressions convey a range of emotions from contemplative to serene, and in some cases, slightly whimsical. The eyes, particularly large and quite expressive, serve as focal points that appear to connect each woman to the viewer and to one another, emphasizing a sense of unity and shared experience. The overall composition and the repetitive motif of female faces suggest themes of community, lineage, and the strength found in collective feminine presence.

Artist

After studying at Kaunas School of Art and Vilnius Academy of Arts, Kaunas Institute of Art (glass, textiles), she has been living in the South of France for more than 20 years. Sniegė also completed a 4-year art education at the Bordeaux School of Art. Already during her studies she was designing clothes and avant-garde clothing collections.

Her art is feminine and elegant. She remains faithful to the theme of femininity in her work, which she chooses to reveal in costume. She studied textiles and has always been interested in the history of costume, which is why clothing occupies an important place in her work, becoming a reflection of her inner world, character and temperament. Sniegė pays a lot of attention to ornaments, patterns and embellishments, while trying to preserve lightness and transparency.

In Sniegė's latest works, a new theme emerges - female friendships. Mademoiselles and madams gather together in groups of three, and sometimes even in whole families. The viewer can only guess what they are whispering about from their glances, posture and dress.

We highly recommend Sniegė's work not only for those who want to decorate their homes, but also for those looking for a special gift for a friend, mother, sister or goddaughter.

She has had several successful solo exhibitions in France and Lithuania, and participates in several artist groups. She is a member of the French Artists' Union.
