ARTIST STATEMENTS:
- I am an audiovisual artist experimenting with new media art and analog glitch aesthetics.
- I work to create audiovisual spaces, physical and virtual, to escape the surface of materiality and immerse into the immaterial worlds hidden in the noise.
- My goal is to sustain moments of consciousness and extract fragments of awe offered by the beauty of imperfections.
- My worlds are eerie liminal spaces of errors; analog dreamscapes resonating from the endless void of consciousness.
- As a nomad of visceral noise, I collect textural artifacts that I find within the undefined shadow spaces of the Mind Palace.
- Consider my works as invitation to enter the state of Glitch Catharsis - experience of audiovisual trigger tension and release.
We find beauty not in the thing itself but in the patterns of shadows, the light and the darkness, that one thing against another creates… Were it not for shadows, there would be no beauty. “In Praise Of Shadows” by Junichiro Tanizaki //
Biography
Egle has a professional background in printmaking (BA in Visual Graphics, Vilnius Academy of Arts, Lithuania, 2014), which has notably influenced her current body of work as she applies elements of the photographic image and printing processes such as complex image layering, halftones, grains, and gradients.
Besides limited edition screen prints and graphic art, she now mainly creates experimental video art and live, immersive audio-visual performances using modified electronics, obsolete cathode ray tube displays, and AV processing software. These are used to playback/process the broken AV signals and/or create them in the present moment. In her most recent work, Egle has also been integrating elements of sound as a result of experimentally processed field recordings, noise, and electronic ambient soundscapes.
With the use of often intensive, audiovisual stimulus, Egle seeks to challenge the viewer’s impressions of reality, individuality, and time. In addition, she explores the complex interlinked relationships between individual and collective memories, experiences, and identities that working with distorted AV analog sources can entail.
Egle has showcased her work in experimental art venues such as IKLECTIK, New River Studios, and fine art galleries such as Saatchi and Jealous in the UK, as well as internationally.
