Hello, I'm
Rasa Justaite-Geceviciene
The pivotal theme in Rasa’s creative work is interpretation of plants, which express the perpetual motion in the natural world, unrivalled in individuality and surprise. Every single thing in the natural world can be viewed as a separate landscape. One can regard it as tangible or abstract, studying in separate pieces or particles. One can look at it from a great height or watch it within an inch. Rasa creates her landscapes using colored clay bodies and glazes, and employing various decoration techniques. She encrusts stone, wood or metal with ceramics in an ingenious way. Skillfully combining different substances the artist invites you to observe, to touch or even to take a walk upon her landscapes of feelings…
Since 1994 she has been actively participating in Lithuanian and international symposia and exhibitions: in Poland, Italy, Moldova, Latvia, the Netherlands, Turkey, Romania, Estonia, Germany, Ukraine, Taiwan, South Korea.
She has already organized 9 solo exhibitions.
