TWO WEEK CREATIVE RETREAT

TWO WEEK CREATIVE RETREAT

Ramygala is a small town in Lithuania. While housing around 1200 residents it is a culturally active place. Just recently opened an art and culture residency in "Savos Erdves". I had the honor to be one of the first four participating artists. Spending two weeks at the residency was a true creative runaway. Diving deeper into ''katazome'' rice resist paste and indigo dyeing technologies expanded new design mediums and sparked innovative ideas for upcoming collections

Ramygala, Lithuania

Savos Erdvės is a cultural hub of Ramygala. It is located at an old traditional Lithuanian house. Artists and creative people visit this place throughout the years. Leaving their artworks and handicraft as their contribution to the community. As a product designer, I wanted to leave my mark with a functional yet aesthetically pleasing item that naturally would blend into a space that is full of creativity, freedom, and tranquility. The result of these two weeks of creative work is two minimalistic work jackets dyed with indigo.
