Kristina Alisauskaite (b. 1984)
The artist uses her personal experiences as material for analyses of universal states. Although she doesn‘t use traditional archetypal imagery, an analogous result is achieved – it invokes the collective unconscious. By depersonalizing, leveling, fragmenting the characters she refines a state, an experience, a psychological situation as such and turns it / them into the main character. Memory becomes a significant thematic axis – the power of fuzzy remembrances to influence the present and the future.
In 2009 Kristina completed MA painting studies in Vilnius Academy of Arts. After the studies she was awarded a „Young artist‘s“ public prize in the contest of the Baltic states (2013). In 2014 she was granted an individual scholarship by the Ministry of Culture. Since 2015 she has been a member of Lithuanian Artists‘ Association.

She is the first and so far the only one from Lithuanian artists included into the publication of „Thames & Hudson“ publishing house called „100 Painters of Tomorrow“ – the top 100 list of the most prospective contemporary global painters.

Also they have been included into collections of „Lewben Art Foundation“, „Akzo Nobel “, Royal Family Collection of Abu Dhabi, National Gallery of art .
The artist has been selected and resided in international art residences such as „Le Manoir-Centre d’art“ in France, „Internationales Künstlerhause Villa Concordia“ in Bamberg, Germany, „Warehouse 421“, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
