I AM A LITHUANIAN SOUND AND PERFORMANCE ARTIST, VOCALIST AND WRITER WORKING AND LIVING IN LONDON. MY PRACTICE EXPLORES THEMES OF IDENTITY, GENDER, MIGRATION AND DIASPORA, AND MORAL PANICS. MY WORK IS INFORMED BY MY LIVED EXPERIENCE OF GROWING UP AS A GENDER NONCONFORMING PERSON IN SMALL-TOWN LITHUANIA, WHERE I WAS ACCUSED OF WITCHCRAFT AND SATANISM, AND WAS CONSEQUENTLY TARGETED BY LOCAL MEDIA, EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AND THE POLICE. ARTIST COLLABORATION IS CORE TO MY WORKING ETHIC AND HAS ENABLED MY PRACTICE TO SPAN A VARIETY OF VISUAL MEDIUMS, LEADING TO INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCES, COMPOSING SOUND FOR FILMS AND PUBLISHING MY WRITING IN LITHUANIA, ICELAND, AS WELL AS UK. CURRENTLY A RESIDENT ARTIST AT SODAS2123. ONE HALF OF A DARK POP DUO KERAI.
