Tomas Martišauskis‘ solo show “Spills”

On September 3 at 6 p.m., (AV17) Gallery presents Tomas Martišauskis‘ solo show “Spills”.

Tomas Martišauskis is a sculptor and art researcher whose work explores the intersection of sculpture, digital technology, and conceptual thinking. The artist is interested in translating one plastic and semantic whole into another, perceiving an object as a changing collection of data, image, and matter. Employing 3D scanning, modeling, and coding systems, the author transforms physical objects into digital sculptures, textual or audio formats and newly materialized forms. In his practice, authorship is partially delegated to technological logic, while matter, image, and code functions as equal elements of contemporary reality.

The exhibition “Spills” continues the artist’s ongoing research into stability, recycling, and sustainability, approaching sculpture not as a finished object, but as a dynamic and constantly changing process. In the context of rapidly shifting technological and social conditions, the exhibition raises the question of how the notions of stability and permanence might be reconsidered. The relationship to the work as an endless, fluid material turns the exhibition into a space in which elements are brought together without a rigid hierarchy, allowing new meanings to emerge. Each “Spill” in the exhibition becomes a metaphor for change – a body composed of elements from the past and its own future forms. The work’s fluidity and incompleteness, as well as its capacity to be remade and adapted to a new context, become principles through which the artist challenges the traditional static nature of sculpture and invites the viewer to encounter the work through pre-linguistic sensation that has not yet been recognized.

Tomas Martišauskis‘ solo show “Spills” will be on view at (AV17) Gallery until October 10.
