Dominykas Sidorovas (b. 1993, Lithuania) is a painter who obtained his MA at the Vilnius Academy of Arts in 2020.
Sidorovas’s work is focused on everyday objects coming from common cultural or personal spaces, speculating on the ambiguity of their visual representation and meaning. Dominykas Sidorovas’s creative method balances between reality and fiction, as the artist tries to place casual or even boring objects in the field of fiction, thus enabling them to gain additional contexts and meanings.
He observes visual shifts from representation to abstraction and from one particular object to another. Sidorovas deconstructs, deforms and visually cleanses the images of the objects while exploring their essence, which allows them to function not as products of mimicry, but rather as visual symbols. His reductionist approach which includes references to social and cultural contexts is complemented by an artistic research based on contemporary philosophy and the study of the field of art, providing a theoretical context for the painter’s work.
