Artist Indrė Aleksiejūnienė (Vilnius) shares her thoughts on her work: 'I graduated from the VDA with a Master's degree in Ceramics. During and after my studies, I devote all my free time to searching for new forms, colours and techniques in ceramics. I participate in exhibitions. I have had 7 solo exhibitions and participated in more than 20 joint exhibitions. I create my ceramic products at home. It is my little oasis of artistic creativity. I do my firings in the countryside. I am mostly inspired by nature. The forest floor, the bottom of the lake, the distance of the meadows. The shrines were inspired by nature. They depict nature as I see and feel it. The exhibition is dedicated to the returning birds." The VAA Outdoor Expo (Maironio g. 6, Vilnius) will be open until 15 December.
