About me

My name is Monika Ivaškaitė-Aukštuolė. I’m an artist based in Vilnius, Lithuania.

​

Since childhood, I’ve been interested in all kinds of creative activities. When I enrolled at art academy, my main focus was painting. But I also like to reflect reality through other mediums: writing, sewing, or photography.

​

I think my art stands out for its “naive”, childlike way of painting and drawing. I often come back to childhood memories, and I’m interested in how they change over time – how what we remember mixes with what we imagine.
