Discover the Life and Work of Stasys Eidrigevičius
Where does Stasys begin?
With a white piece of paper. From a pencil. From a dot on a canvas. When Stasys is working, he feels neither cold nor heat, forgetting that time exists. It is as if God were sending him an invisible force, while the artist's hands orchestrate the colors and shapes. "It's often difficult to explain what comes out of all this," he says.
"I don't draw a clear line between creative fields. My experiences in bookplates have influenced illustrations and posters, which have influenced paintings, and paintings have influenced posters. It all goes around in circles, but the most important thing for me is that I can express my thoughts in my work," is how he describes the unity of his work.
By choosing the path of metaphors, the artist translates them into different means of expression. On a piece of paper, a notebook, a canvas, a page of a book, a stage, an empty museum hall, a poem, a book, or a magazine page. But at the center of it all is the human being. His many faces and masks.
Stasys is the only one. He has a special, distinctive creative style, an artistic expression that is unique to him alone. He conveys the grotesque, absurd, and paradoxical nature of man and the world, and at the same time, a great love for the everyday moment.
