When I go on holidays
and that is not so often,
Often I see ladies
within their perfection.

12.586
I was invited to join local artist Katriona Beales. She had been wanting to talk and express her views as an artist about the homes and houses that get demolished. I am not local but I felt for the subject of local community and the sense of home. Our meetings ended up with a show documenting and responding to Housing Market Renewal in Liverpool. We called it 12.586 (which is the number of the houses to be demolished in Merseyside under the New Heartlands program, part of the national Housing Market Renewal Initiative launched in 2003). Nina Edge, who is renowned for her projects involving local communities and regeneration supported us by adding her own work as well as a talk with the public about the subject.
Artwork for 12.586 included photographic images with drawings interpreted, a short film by a local resident and also a ScribbleScribble book which was created by anyone who came in: even kids.

The Bee Story
There is no reason why I have made this film except that I did try and help the bee to survive. I found the bee behind my make up bag in the bathroom. She (or he?) was half alive (or half dead?). Anyway, sometimes the fact why (or why not?) the artwork is (or is not?) created is more important than the actual artwork. And that says more than the artwork itself about the person who was involved (or was not?). This is part of my philosophy about people and what and how they do (or don’t do) things.
So finally who is in charge to make decisions to bee (or not to bee?)…

10 Years Late
I am busy putting my photography book: it will be a collection of photos from the past ten years. I have my own deadline which is the 26th of June as it is exactly 10 years as I have left Lithuania. The selection of photos is something I have continuously been doing since I left. They are the main sort of reason why I am doing what I am doing now creatively, they have kept me going and at the same time they are the reason why I was carried away and didn’t do certain things (which I should have started ten years ago!..). So here comes the title of the book ’10 YEARS LATE’.
