About

Inga Lineviciute is an artist from Lithuania. Currently lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark



In my creative practice I use drawing as my main tool to create ‘a world’ that unfolds within a process. In a form of animation and image, I explore areas such as loss of identity, ethics, behaviour both in private and public places, as well as values and traditions. I focus on current events, drawing an inspiration from the surroundings; observing physical places and ‘scrolling’ through social media feed.

I am an observer and I collect experiences; whether I was involved in a situation or I was just a spectator. I collect strangers’ conversations, images of their looks, facial expressions and other visually appealing details. I pick situations that are raising questions what is good and appropriate, and what isn’t. I question people’s morals and values, affects of consumerism and identity crisis.

Using humour such situations are brought to ‘life’ in either fragmented version or with a new meaning. Rather than trying to understand the world, the narrative itself relies on a process and letting ‘a world’ to unfold itself.
