(Ne)matoma

"(NE)MATOMA" (eng. "(IN)VISIBLE") is an art installation by photographer Gabija Gaidjurgytė, which encompasses pictures, audio recordings and medical descriptions of people's chronic illnesses, which are invisible to the naked eye and therefore often dismissed by society. The art installation was showcased in the Martynas Mažvydas National Library and I worked on it not only as a production assistant, but also a retoucher. Here are a few shots from the installation.

Ko šiuo metu labiausiai bijote?

“Ko šiuo metu labiausiai bijote?” (ENG: "What are you currently most afraid of?") is a social photography project by Gabija Gaidjurgytė, which explores fear as both a personal and collective experience. Based on anonymous responses from over 450 participants in Lithuania and abroad, the project transforms individual fears into conceptual photographic posters. Through visual symbolism and storytelling, it invites viewers to confront their own fears and reflect on the emotions that connect us all. I participated in this project as a production assistant, worked on SFX, and later contributed to retouching some of the images.
