Influences
Hideaki Hamada, whom I am honored to call a friend, profoundly influences my approach to composition.
I continually gain insights from the works of Artūras Morozovas.
Discovering the works of Romualdas Požerskis and Antanas Sutkus was a pivotal moment, revealing how much emotional resonance everyday life has.
Vivian Maier and Annie Leibovitz have fueled my fascination with candid photography and eccentric characters, accentuating the raw, unscripted essence of their subjects.
When it comes to studio work, it’s a whole different ballgame. I am deeply enamored with the conceptualism manifested in the works of Cho Gi-Seok.
The compelling storytelling of Scott Schuman and Brandon Stanton sparked the concept of my “Seniors of Vilnius” series.
I remain ever-vigilant for glimpses of Daido Moriyama’s elusive canine companion, and capturing the raindrops in water canister much like Tadas Kazakevičius did.
Albeit a little too liberal from a visual standpoint, the philosophy and relentless dedication of Nobuyoshi Araki and Trevor Wisecup are not to be taken lightly. Embracing the spontaneous rhythm of ‘snap-snap’ has unlocked avenues of bold, liberating expressions.

Bio
Born in Vilnius, Lithuania, in 1987. The Soviet Union was on the verge of collapse, and the American Dream was visiting us not in our sleep, but via bootlegged VHS tapes. I've come to appreciate being the byproduct of both sides of the globe, embracing a true Westerner’s selective disregard for the rest of the world.
I’ve been watercoloring since my earliest memories, switching to pen and pencils in secondary school and migrating to mice and cursors during my teenage years. This journey eventually led me to discover my passion for graphic design in my late university years.
With a heart full of youthful naivete, I began organizing cultural events with the ambitious goal of changing the world. The world has indeed changed, though I suspect not due to my endeavors. Merging my passions, I’ve proudly donned the title of Creative Producer.
The camera and I maintained a “friend-zone” relationship from my early student years; we would spend time together, but nothing serious ever developed. However, over the past five years, thanks to the supportive fellows around me, I’ve decided to take this relationship to a more committed level.
