Simona Merijauskaitė is a Lithuanian abstract painter known for her thought-provoking and deeply symbolic works. Born in 1989, she graduated with a Bachelor's degree in 2012 and a Master's degree in 2015 from the Vilnius Academy of Arts5. Her artistic style often explores themes of evolution, nature, and the collective unconscious, drawing inspiration from Carl Jung's philosophy.
Merijauskaitė's work has been exhibited in various galleries across Lithuania, Latvia, and Poland, including the "Meno parkas" gallery, Klaipėda Culture Communication Center, and the "Arka" gallery. In 2021, she received a certificate from the "Luxembourg Art Prize," which encouraged her to continue developing her creative direction. Her recent exhibition, "Inland," was supported by a cultural grant from Lithuania and is part of the Lithuanian Artists' Union's 90th-anniversary program.
Currently, Simona Merijauskaitė resides and works in Žemaitija, contributing to the spread of professional art beyond major cities. Her artistic process involves combining painting with other mediums like land art and video to create a metaphysically charged, Nordic visual narrative.
