Artwork in the room
Laura Aitmanė was born in 1987. She followed her passion for architecture, graduating in 2010 from the Kaunas Faculty of Arts at the Vilnius Academy of Arts, and again in 2012 from the Kaunas University of Technology, specializing in architecture on both occasions.
Nature is Laura Aitmanė’s primary source of inspiration. Her artistic pursuits are closely connected to landscapes, flowers, and animals. She delights in bird watching and takes particular interest in Lithuania’s wild plants, which often appear as motifs in her creations.
Aitmanė’s unique style features expressive, at times slightly rough, brushstrokes. This method enables her to portray nature in a way that avoids both clichés and excessive sentimentality, infusing her paintings with authenticity and vitality.
Since 2020, Laura Aitmanė has been exhibiting her works in solo shows. Through these exhibitions, she continues to investigate and present her fascination with the patterns and beauty found in nature.
About this artwork+
The painting depicts a vivid field of flowers, predominantly populated by large, striking red poppies. These poppies, rendered with rich, varying shades of red and subtle orange, boast naturalistic details in their petals and dark, prominent centers that draw the eye. The poppies are intermingled with clusters of delicate blue flowers, adding contrast and color depth to the composition. The backdrop is a lush, dark green, suggesting a dense, verdant field, enhancing the vibrancy of the flowers. The overall texture and brushwork lend a sense of movement and life, as if a gentle breeze is moving through the scene. The painting is framed in a simple, elegant green frame that complements the natural tones within the artwork.
