Exhibition MONADOS by the young Lithuanian painter Simona Merijauskaitė, features her newest cycle of large scale paintings.

About

Private view of the exhibition MONADOS by the Lithuanian painter Simona Merijauskaitė, will be held on 3rd of September (Friday) at 6p.m. at Meno Parkas Gallery in Kaunas (Rotušės a. 27). 

"At the MONADOS exhibition, I present the latest cycle of paintings. The main idea is connectionsdistances and the subjects relations expressed through it. This topic is organically intertwined with my creative contemplations. Observing nature, I turn my gaze from the subject towards what moves it and connects it with the whole.

I compare the stone motif with the concept of a monad. Each monad have individual experience, it is not available to anyone else and unfolds only through interaction. Cezanne painted the air between himself and Mount Victoria. The stones resonate with each other. That invisible experience is the goal.

It was interesting to paint this cycle. I am fascinated by the peacefulness of the philosophical unit of monad. Despite its impersonal, I am affected only by monad presence and the purity of the idea."
