Lina Videckienė is an artist whose creative path is characterized by continual movement and adaptability. Traveling the globe with nothing more than a roll of canvas and a compact suitcase containing paints and brushes, she breathes life into her art wherever she finds herself. The transient quality of her lifestyle gives her remarkable flexibility, directly shaping both the scale and style of her artistic output.
At present, Lina divides her life between Lithuania and Finland. This itinerant way of living often requires her to adapt to a range of environments for her artistic practice. Having left her studio in Lithuania, she has become accustomed to working in confined foreign spaces, which has led her to produce smaller-format creations whenever space is at a premium.
Nevertheless, whenever Lina gains access to a more spacious studio, she is compelled to create on a larger scale. Shifts in her surroundings influence not just the dimensions of her canvases but also offer her renewed inspiration and the liberty to fully realize her artistic intentions. Her devotion to painting is reflected in her unwavering commitment to create, no matter the circumstances.
For Lina, seeing each piece of her art find a new home brings deep honor and inspiration. She cherishes the personal relationships that develop with those who decide to live with her paintings. This continuing interaction between artist and viewer drives her to persist in exploring, creating, and sharing her art beyond geographic boundaries.
About this artwork+
The painting depicts a white goose with its wings spread, as if it's about to take off or is in the middle of a vigorous flap. The goose is set against a backdrop of muted green hues that suggest a natural setting, perhaps a pond or a lush garden. You can see hints of blue and brown, possibly indicating water and earth. Lina Videckienė, the artist, employs a painterly style that captures both detail and movement. Her strokes are visible and dynamic, adding a textural quality that brings the goose to life. The frame surrounding the painting is thick and rustic, enhancing the traditional feel of the artwork. "I Will Run" seems to evoke a sense of freedom and readiness for flight, embodying a moment filled with potential energy. Lina's technique merges realism with a touch of impressionistic flair, focusing on the beauty of the natural world through a simple yet poignant scene.
