I am a 28-year-old lawyer from Vilnius, Lithuania. In 2020, I completed my Master's degree in Law at Vilnius University and commenced my career at SEB bank, specializing in contract law.
As a child, I dreamed of becoming an architect. This interest in shaping space according to my taste has not disappeared, and now it manifests itself in photographing architecture. I have found that the discipline and attention to detail that I developed through my legal studies have significantly influenced my approach to photography. The strictness and precision inherent in law subconsciously manifest in my photographic work - my photos are characterized by a strict logical composition, a thoughtful relationship between lines and colors, juxtaposition of various forms and structures.
Photography, to me, embodies a visual philosophy where architecture, cityscapes, and people become a canvas to express my perception of the world.
While I am an amateur photographer, I have received positive feedback from fellow photographers on social media, which has encouraged me to submit my work to international contests. Recently, I was thrilled to learn that one of my images - ‘From Fascism to Fendi‘ – made it to the shortlist of the European Region in the prestigious Sony World Photography Awards 2024. I will also be hosting my first solo exhibition in Vilnius in October 2024.
