"OZO 32"- here's the piece I ran the contest for in all it's glory. I absolutelly love the architecture of these appartment blocks in Šeškinė. With this piece I wanted to do a bit of a social commentary on the age of adds and commercials that we live in. I used over 80 adds collected from a just a few news outlet websites to create this piece. It is absolutelly astonoshing the ammount of commercials and adds we are constantly being exposed to. We've almost become blind to it. I imagined a futute where corps can use your living space or even buy out your entire appartment just to instal screens and banners on the walls. George Carlin and Banksy are some of my idols and I was very ispired by them when making this piece. ... Konkursas baigesi! Laimėtojas išrinktas! Sveikinimai @martinookas ! Didžiausias įmanomas AČIŪ visiems kurie laikinot komentavot ir dalinotės! Iš 150 komentarų, 39 iš jūsų atsakė teisingai. Daugiabutis yra Ozo gatvėje 32 Šeškinė. Iškart už sankryžos prie Akropolio. Daugiabučių turim daugybe ir nerealių bet mažai jų yra neapsupti medžių ar kitų daugiabučių. Šį gražuolį galima nufotografuot praktiškai iš visų pusių be didelių trukdžių. Šeškinės monolitams beje taip pat esu paruošęs idėja kitam editui, bet tokius atsakymus taip pat užskaičiau nes prašiau tik rajono 😁 ... Tikrai planuoju daugiau tokų konkursų ateityje. Nors šiuo darbu komentuojų reklamos absurdiškuma, turbūt nėra geresnės reklamos nei konkursas 😄 Šlovė drakonui žodžiu... Linksmų švenčių visiems! 🤗🤗🤗 #vilnius #vilniusofficial #vilniuslithuania #šeškinė #vilniusgram #lithuaniahq #lithuania_pics #lietuva🇱🇹 #lietuva #digitalartists #photoshoper #cyberpunk #cyberpunkedits #cyberfuture #cybervilnius #surrealistic #dystopian #brutalistarchitecture (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmjRKnutUK0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"RIAUŠIŲ POLICIJA" - I've always found it bizarre how police show off their new riot gear in these news articles and presentations. Surprisingly they often get a lot of support, even on socials like Facebook. But aren't they essentially showing of gear that will stop US if we decide that a revolution is in order? I understand that often uprisings are started by people who are deeply confused. But once in a while a riot is what really brings change and stops corrupt governments from becoming dictatorships. And yet we celebrate the equipment that is bought to crush those revolutions. Once again it seems that wrong and right are often so blurred that even the most educated find it difficult to choose a side. I keep coming back to the conclusion that there's almost never a one answer to any given question. If our Lithuanian police would present a new anti-riot vehicles with machine gun turrets on top that could rip a person to shreds, would we support it as well? 😄 Would it one of those "necessary" evil kind of situations? Food for thought nothing more 😊 Hope you guys like it 🫡 #cybervilnius @lietuvos_policija_ #vilnius #vilnius🇱🇹 #lietuva🇱🇹 #vilniuslithuania #vilniusgram #lietuvoje #vilniusdigitalart #vilniusofficial #skaitmeninismenas #photoshopmanipulation #photoshop_art #riotpolice (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoPVfkhNCF9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Contrast" - when working on new pieces I enjoy touching on topics that seem to escape time. Certain issues that we have as a society seem to bypass progress and growth. Regardless of how much we advance in certain fields or how much richer the rich get, the poor stay poor. I have long been an advocate for anti growth as it seems to only divide us more. While it solves many issues it's often only for those who can afford the sollutions. While some are born into privilege and wealth those born in scarcity rarely escape it. And even though in a capitalist society, division is one of the main factors for progress, it becomes easy to disregard failure as lack of effort. But certain factors of life that play a major role are often ignored. Things like luck, enviroment, family and freedom. We tend to believe that we are free to make choices and take risks and that life is a book where we are writers. But things are rarely as simple as they seem. Those who are less fortunate are perfect examples of that. I hope we are all able to become more compassionate in the future. Feels like we need a little less growth in the economy department and more in the departments of our minds. 🫶 #cybervilnius #cyberpunk #cyberart #vilnius #vilniusofficial #vilniuslithuania #lithuaniahq #lithuania_pics #lietuva🇱🇹 #vilnius🇱🇹 #homelessness #digitalartists #photoshop_art #manipulationart #digitaledit #phaserunnercommunity #pscreativers #futurism (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnojABUNFyx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"CHEAP USED SUPERCARS" - here's a poster I got commissioned to make for @carvertical_com a few months back. The original shot was taken at Kalvarijų turgus. I actually had to came back a few times to take reference shots when it was a little more populated. 😄 It's always a blast to speculate on the future. Often you find yourself saying "well there's probably no way that is going to happen" and yet that's probably what the last 5 generations thought about the future aswell. And here we are with self driving cars, lidar scanners in our pockets, AI having conversations and creating art. It's almost impossible to guess what the world will look like 50 years from now. Let alone a couple of hundred 😄 Hope everyone had a fun, safe new years celebration Have a nice weekend all 😊 #cybervilnius #lithuania_pics #lithuaniahq #vilniusgram #vilniusdigitalart #kalvarijuturgus #lithuania🇱🇹 #vilnius🇱🇹 #digitalartistsofinstagram #photoshop_art #photomanipulation #beforeandafter #futurism (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnEawuJtCw7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Red Steed" - a few weeks back I snapped a shot of this awesome car from the 80's it's a soviet built Lada VAZ 2106. I remember these cars being everywhere when I was a kid. Regardless of which model it was we called them all "Žigulys". Now spotting one is a rare event. And it always brings out some nostalgic feelings. It's like a little time capsule on wheels from a different time. I knew I wanted to add some kind of street art on the wall and after jumping through a bunch ideas a portrait of Vytautas Kernagis just felt so right. While this car was roaming the streets he was releasing albums and being a great entertainer. In one of his songs he recites poems by Sigitas Geda called Strazdas from 1967 and in it, the poet mentions "wide red steeds" so I just had to make the car red which really added to the composition aswell. The robot with a cigarrette adds some retro future flavor to the overall picture making it complete. I just really like this piece ☺️ all the political context aside I love how it turned out. Hope you guys dig it aswell ✌️ #vilniusofficial #vilniuslithuania #cybervilnius #vilniusgram #vilniuszirmunai #vilnius🇱🇹 #lithuaniahq #lithuania🇱🇹 #lithuaniadigitalart #photoshopping #cyberpunkartworks #cyberart #retrofuture #manipulationart #photoshop_art #zigulys #digital__creationz @digitalcolosseum @launchdsigns @cyberfuturepunk @babylon_6 @cyberpunk.jpg @cyberpunk_art (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiRwtMUjVJ4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
