The motifs that appear in the works in the exhibition are cut out of their temporal or local contexts, but the artist does not rely on decontextualisation, but on the Japanese aesthetic tradition's concept of kire-tsuzuki (cut continuity). Kire-tsuzuki can be defined as an act of interruption, interruption, cutting off, which creates a transformation of the original form - by extracting historical and cultural forms from their natural environment, the artist creates new ways of interpreting them through the eyes of the present day, not attempting to overcome them as references or cultural artefacts, but to reassemble them all into new wholes with new characteristics. By interrupting previous connotations and interpretations, Paulina Domšauskaitė performs a symbolic act of their destruction, which at the same time ensures new forms of their being. The juxtaposition of different sources, modes of expression, colours, textures and contents reflects the changing cultural boundaries in contemporary art and highlights the inseparable interactions between separation and integration. This allows us to reflect on the multilayered sources of knowledge that shape today's culture.
