About the Item
The artist says of the inspiration in her latest work . . .
Moving to Washington, DC in 2016 changed me. The unraveling of this country's leadership elicited a strong, visceral reaction, and I spent the last year coming into consciousness.
The work in this exhibition is a small act and the beginning of my journey to find my voice. Navigating through life as a woman, I have faced a myriad of challenges—most of which I had accepted as the norm and was never courageous enough to protest.
I have been harassed on the street by strangers. I have seen my hardworking friends with children openly and honestly struggle to find the necessary support for both work and life balance. I have faced constant judgment for being childless and unmarried in my 30s. I encountered income inequality in the workplace. While these may seem like mild and ordinary obstacles, they are systemic problems.
It is easy to feel helpless and wonder what one individual can do. After being silent for a lifetime, I now challenge myself to have a voice. Each small voice builds the resistance and strengthens the sound.

Oil and Spray Paint on Canvas - Painting by Emerging Artist - House&God
Located in Vilnius, Vilniaus apskr.
Based on fragments of authentic photographs and notes, Maja creates a reconstruction of a past she never experienced. It is a young artist's visual interpretation of someone else's memory. She reflects on the reliability of images and a melancholic nostalgia — “a longing to return to a place I have never been.” The artist raises questions about the possibilities of conveying memory and the relationship between image and truth, constructing a visual interpretation of a time period she never knew through her paintings.
