As a Lithuanian writer and photographer, I work across documentary and art-documentary photography, bringing together a journalistic gaze and visual storytelling to explore memory, identity, lived experience, and the relationship between people and place.

An early interest in military themes first led me to study journalism at Vilnius University and later to pursue an MSc in War & Psychiatry at King’s College London. Shaped both by that academic path and by work in journalism, communications, and the press office of the Lithuanian Armed Forces, the way I photograph is closely connected to what photography means to me: attention to the quieter layers of life that often go unnoticed.

Moving between portraiture, documentary projects, and visual explorations of urban environments, my work explores the space where documentary reality meets an atmospheric, dreamlike sensibility. Even when the human figure is absent from the frame, traces of presence remain in places, objects, and the details of everyday life. Ultimately, regardless of genre, my work remains rooted in stories through which personal and collective memory emerge.
