I am a Lithuanian-born, UK-formed production designer and art director whose work moves between film, fine art, and spatial design. With a background in architecture and over a decade of experience shaping cinematic worlds, I’m drawn to environments that hold traces of memory, time, and human presence.
Making a film means working alongside dedicated creative people. Some of these voices, works, and ideas continue to spark my curiosity and feed my practice:
Alain de Botton’s How Proust Can Change Your Life — for reminding me that detail and reflection can shift the way we live.
Alexander McQueen — for visceral beauty that dares to confront.
Es Devlin — for transforming imagination into space and light.
Byung-Chul Han — for untangling the burnout and speed of our times.
Paolo Sorrentino — for his lush explorations of beauty, decadence, and memory
Older people and their relationship with time — for the pace and freedom I often seek.
Painters who move through color like breath — for reminding me of movement and joy.
