Eglė Einikytė-Narkevičienė: Waves, 2021-2024

I have been working with ceramics for more than twenty years. As an artist, I have always observed people and their environments. It is important for me to reveal their complex relationships that are influenced by the environment, and as the outcome of these relationships – people’s egocentricity, vanity, the need for incarnation, and their constant desire to regain internal structured order and peace.

On a certain level, humanity’s universal problems matter more than those of a single person. Therefore, I choose abstract forms full of diverse metaphors and symbols. These people, crouched, broken by their lives, chained by their inner conflicts, are similar to each of us in one way or another: our natural moral disposition to reflect on our own experience and close ourselves in the shell of fear and anxiety. Such abstract forms evoke our imagination deeper and make us think, trying to find answers to diverse existential questions.

The pandemic situation has dictated new forms and ideas. After the introduction of the lockdown, the world has stopped turning. This standstill has been a great opportunity for me to think and reconsider the things surrounding me anew. This situation taught me to cherish what I have, not hurry, and live every moment to the fullest. New sculptures have acquired somewhat unexpected forms that are unusual for my artwork. They contain certain Baroque elements, witnessing the crises we’ve been undergoing as well as the uncertainty of the situation and all this confusion. In these works, I used ceramic material to capture every single vibration, as if the image were immersed deep under the water and a viewer could feel the flowing stream of water. So, such would be my response to the present situation – not to resist and to accept it as it is.
