这个系列名为《混凝土之梦》(Concrete Dreams),拍摄地点位于我家乡考纳斯(Kaunas)的一片城市区域,名为“Silainiai”。这个地区建于1982年至1990年间,当时对许多年轻家庭来说,这里是梦想中的居所。随着时间推移,它逐渐从一个全新的住宅区变成了破旧的城市空间。而在过去十年里,这里又开始发生新的变化,重新成为人们渴望居住的地方。如今,它变得更适合家庭生活,拥有绿色空间和孩子们的游乐场。我想通过这组作品呈现出,在这样的环境中生活是一种怎样的感受——混凝土建筑与自然元素交织的独特氛围。
This series is called “Concrete dreams”. The pictures were taken in an urban area called “Silainiai” in my home town Kaunas. This place was build between 1982 and 1990.Back than it was a dream place to live for many young families. As time went by it changed from new place to run down urban space. For the last ten years it started changing once again in to a place were people want to live. It became a family friendly space with green places and playing grounds for kids. I wanted to show how it feels to be part of this environment filed with concrete buildings and some nature.

我今年42岁,来自立陶宛的考纳斯。我拍照已经将近20年了,曾参与超过20场群展,也举办过几次小型个展。我使用胶片相机拍摄,使用的是35mm或120mm胶卷,同时也在自己搭建的小型暗房里进行明胶银盐冲印。我不对照片进行数字编辑。我喜欢拍摄那些大多数人不会注意到的事物。我喜欢通过相机、胶片和化学药剂的结合,将一个物体或场景转化为影像。 对我影响最大的是几位立陶宛摄影师,包括 Vytautas Balcytis、Alfonsas Budvytis、Remigijus Treigys 等。
I am 42 years old from Kaunas, Lithuania. I have been taking pictures for almost 20 years. I took part in more than 20 group show and had couple of small personal shows. I work with analog camera and 35mm or 120mm film. I also do some gelatin silver printing in my own small laboratory. I don’t do digital editing to my pictures. I like photographing things that most people don’t pay attention to. I like to take an object or a scene and transform it with the help of my camera, film and chemicals. My biggest influences are Lithuanian photographers: Vytautas Balcytis, Alfonsas Budvytis, Remigijus Treigys and others.
