Kipras Černiauskas (b. 1993, Lithuania) is a painter whose work explores how contemporary flows of information shape the way we see, think, and feel. Working at the intersection of narrative, media criticism, and figurative painting, the artist uses realistic imagery with expressive, rough brushwork to investigate themes such as mortality, slowness, and personal rupture. His practice often integrates text, sound, and walking—treating painting not only as a medium but as a way to construct experience and meaning.
In 2017 Kipras Černiauskas graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts with a BA in the Department of site-specific art, and in 2020 he graduated from the MA in the same department.
Kipras Černiauskas is living and working in Vilnius. His recent exhibitions and projects are:
