Elena Kanarskaitė is an interdisciplinary artist, graphic designer, living and working in Vilnius. Graduated from VDK in graphic design, later VDA in graphic communication design. She works with personal creative projects as well as with various clients and customers.
Elena says that her work cannot be defined as framed graphic design, illustration or installation art. Her work combines different media and tools to form an interdisciplinary approach. She often collaborates with other artists. Experience, impact and a sense of takeaway are some of the main aspects that the artist strives to convey in her work.
Over the last years she has organised and participated in exhibitions. In 2022, she participated in the ENTER Arts Festival and her work was exhibited at the Šiauliai Photography Museum. In the same year, Kanarskaitė was one of the speakers at the PICTOLASMA festival in Berlin, where she won a bronze in the Interactive Design category of the IDA (International Design Awards). In 2023, she participated in a group exhibition curated and organized by her MA in Visual Communication, MA in Design students at the AKADEMIJA gallery, and in June 2023, she exhibited her master's thesis installation Geismo Mašina (Geismo Machine) at the LDS gallery on Vokiečių g. in June 2023.
