Miglė Nrbutaitė. Accent of Focus.



Migle Narbutaite is the young generation artist, who has her own way of seeing and who had studied in Bergen Art Academy in Norway and in Professional Photography School in Reikjavik in Iceland. This year she graduated in Vilnius Art Academy. From 2005 she has participated in many personal and group exhibitions in Lithuania and abroad.

In this exhibition we present five series created in a year 2007-2010: Bremen, Dream America, France, Autoportraits and Circle of Culture. All these series are connected by motiv of traveling, but it is not a tipical tourist photography. During traveling we see a change of persons status in a place. In some places she is tourist in some places temporary living in some places she is a local. Different conditions, different situations causing different ways of photographing and exhibiting.
