Dziuginta Didziokaite

“The artist’s world is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away. It is always on his doorstep”. (Paul Strand)

Painting as an instrument of reality; the art of Dziuginta Didziokaite is divided into thematic areas. The work offered for the exhibition, has a strong emotional and mental charge, where it is possible to read realistic and flowing intent. The greens and browns dialogue to realize the meeting of the material and the nostalgic, an apple that becomes a spokesman for a radical change in which the importance of memories is made alive. Faded, forgotten memories but which, in one way or another, have characterized our experience. Dziuginta Didziokaite starts from here, from the images of childhood, reminding us that these have also been present in our society. From works that are on the surface figurative in nature, they are actually moral icons. Poverist and conceptual intervention may be the key to Apple, where the anthropic element is there and is perceived but only in the background, its presence is sensed by the hand that becomes an integral part of the still life. Light is the main element; it is she who offers the coordinates on which our gaze focuses. Here, it is here that poor art and conceptual art meet, and Dziuginta Didziokaite's style is evident in the construction and combination of color and figurative that make up the scene in simple and solid tones. The minimal, poor and essential intervention blends with the goal of realizing the idea of the landscape and not the landscape itself. Realism meets intellect, which Dziuginta Didziokaite knows masterfully to realize a suspended, eternal and mysterious environment. With a skillful use of colors, Dziuginta Didziokaite takes the viewer on a chromatic journey, where surfaces flake into volumes under the seamless effect of light. The idea of artistic intervention in reality and the tradition of landscape painting is realized with a simple intervention through new realities with a strong poverist charge.
