Rūta Burbulė is a Lithuanian artist whose relationship with art has been enduring since her early years. She is a graduate of both the Vilnius Justinas Vienožinskis Art School and the highly regarded National M.K. Čiurlionis Art Gymnasium, where she specialized in painting. Later, Rūta completed her master’s thesis in Art Education, and for over ten years, she has been imparting her knowledge as a teacher in a range of public and private institutions.
It was fifteen years ago that Rūta came upon silk painting quite unexpectedly. Her initial experiment—painting a small scarf—soon turned into a passionate pursuit that continues to be at the core of her creative practice. The act of painting on silk brings her both relaxation and space for experimentation, as every piece is guided by her curiosity and innovative spirit. Through the years, she has created diverse silk artworks, such as accessories, scarves, shawls, ties, dresses, curtains, and expansive paintings, unveiling several distinctive collections of garments painted on silk.
Beyond her artistic abilities, Rūta Burbulė is also recognized for her influence within Lithuania’s silk painting community. She led the Lithuanian Silk Painting Association as its President from 2015 to 2018 and continues to participate actively as a member. Among her accomplishments is a win at the International Silk Painting Competition in France, underscoring her dedication and international standing in the field.
Besides her roles as an artist and teacher, Rūta is involved in a variety of artistic initiatives, performances, and exhibitions. She has mounted eight solo exhibitions and taken part in more than twenty group shows. Today, she pursues her artistic endeavors at the Druskininkai Craft Centre "Menų kalvė", where she remains fully engaged in creative projects and community involvement.
About this artwork+
In this vibrant and whimsical painting, a serene, crowned queen stands at the center, dressed in an elegant gown adorned with patterns resembling snowflakes and celestial bodies. The gown flows out widely, almost blending into the surrounding landscape, which is segmented into colorful, geometric patches reminiscent of a quilt. She holds a mysterious, ornate book in her left hand, suggesting wisdom or authority. Around her, the environment is fantastical and dreamlike, dominated by two large, leafless trees that arc over her, their branches adorned with circular motifs and red berries. Intriguing, circular designs, possibly symbolic or celestial, float near the trees. A large, stylized moon or orb looms in the upper left, filled with intricate patterns and small, star-like shapes, enhancing the magical ambiance of the scene. The background suggests different realms or a passage of time: on one side, a winter scene with bare trees against a cool purple sky; on the other, a more surreal, abstract landscape featuring additional circular motifs and a solitary red orb hanging in the sky. The boundaries between these realms are as fluid and interconnected as the patterns that flow throughout the composition. The scene radiates a serene yet enigmatic energy, inviting contemplation of its deeper meanings and the story of the queen.
