Spaces in Between

Like most of Vilnius inhabitants, I grew up in a communist-built social housing estate. Today the estates are in decay and state of disrepair which is an urgent issue addressed by Vilnius Municipality. Regeneration programs repair and repaint apartment block buildings but I soon noticed that they completely ignore the courtyards and spaces in between them.

Museum on a Bicycle

The Museum on a Bicycle is about bringing the stories of David Parr House to a wider public in Cambridge. It is travelling museum designed with small personal details in mind. Every element of the design tells a story of the house and aims to spark conversations and storytelling around it. The bicycle communicates the various hidden elements of 186 Gwydir Street – a house like any other on the outside, but concealing and extraordinary interior world; holding stories from across decades, marks left by its inhabitants, hidden corners and secret compartments. The Museum on a Bicycle aims to engage the public with these multi-layered stories – and to encourage to create their own.

Ways of Looking

My work explores storytelling and meaning-making at museum spaces. Ways of Seeing gathers a collection of interpretations from the public aiming to understand narratives visitors construct looking at the display. Meaning of objects is in constant flux and Ways of Seeing celebrates it stating that every interpretation is equally valuable and important.
The installation is a way to imagine the democratized future of museums where the public is invited to participate in curatorial processes making the content of exhibitions more open and diverse and where the power dynamics of curator and visitor are shifting to construct new ways of conversing and learning in museum spaces.

Sonder

Sonder is about perceptions, interpretations and the ways we relate to imagery and objects through our own past experiences, creating new personal narratives.
It is a story found in a box at the junk shop containing pictures, letters and documents of women who lived in London for 102 years. Blended with fiction and presented through objects and photographs it celebrates an everyday life story. 
Stories on the postcards present fragments of a non-linear narrative, inviting the viewer to fill in voids with one’s own memories and interpretations.
