Why is it easier to paint on one wall and not on the other? What is an “exit room”? How can ceramics be related to screens? The artist’s studio is the place where the most unexpected questions often arise and the most interesting processes, invisible to many, take place: ideas are born, various transformations, mistakes, coincidences happen and slow technical work is performed.<\/p>\n
Lithuanian Interdisciplinary Artists\u2019 Association (LIAA) tried to break into these intimate environments and talk to three members of the association about their creative processes, mundane life and ideas. In a series of short 5-6 minute videos three artists \u2013 Simonas Nekro\u0161ius, Rokas Dovyd\u0117nas and Egl\u0117 Ridikait\u0117 \u2013 talk about their creative practice, in which a studio (a specific physical space) plays a very important role.<\/p>\n
Simonas Nekro\u0161ius is an interdisciplinary artist. He actively participates in the fields of contemporary art, experimental music and sound art, constructing sound objects, sculptures and enabling them in his aural performances. The principles of \u201cDIY\u201d and \u201cready-made\u201d are common in Nekro\u0161ius\u2019 work and form his unique creative style. He mainly focuses on processuality, intuition, experimentation and improvisation. Simonas is looking for unconventional forms of sound extraction, exploring and practising a mutual connection of artist and sound object. Since 2015, he is one of the founders and operators of an independent initiative, the DIY-art project space \u201cStudium P\u201d.<\/p>\n
