Giedrė Balčiūnaitė creates deeply personal art, with each painting serving as a reflection of herself. She characterizes her work as a dynamic dance of bold brushstrokes and vibrant colours, capturing both movement and emotion on every canvas. Through this expressive style, she enables viewers to connect emotionally with her pieces, as though experiencing a narrative or feeling brought to life through paint.
Her enduring interest in abstract painting stems from its constantly evolving nature. Giedrė believes that every viewing of a painting unveils something different—new emotions and images that might have previously gone unnoticed. By embracing abstraction, she seeks to stimulate the viewer’s imagination and inspire creativity, making her art an engaging encounter.
For Giedrė, freedom is at the core of her artistic process. She is especially inspired by working on a large scale, which allows her to express emotions freely and uninhibitedly on the canvas. Her preferred mediums are acrylics and oils, and she frequently utilizes unconventional tools sourced from building supply stores or kitchen cupboards, resulting in distinctive textures in her artwork. With the use of thick applications of paint, her works often feature surfaces that are highly tactile and inviting to the touch.
Her paintings are notable for their vivid and pure colours, which make them visually compelling and brimming with vitality. They are intended for adventurous art enthusiasts—individuals who appreciate daring, imaginative, and emotionally rich artworks that invite exploration time and again.
About this artwork+
The painting titled "Ice Age" by Giedrė Balčiūnaitė displays a complex layering of colors and textures, evoking a sense of cold and frozen time. Light blues and whites dominate, suggesting ice and snow, while hints of darker blues and sporadic patches of yellow and pink introduce a cold depth and fleeting warmth. The presence of vertical drips and streaks gives the impression of melting ice or icicles. Abstract forms and shapes overlap and blend into each other, creating a dynamically shifting vista that feels both serene and mobile. Tiny bubbles or circular patterns in some areas suggest trapped air or perhaps frozen moments, encapsulating a serene yet chaotic atmosphere of an icy landscape evolving through time.
