Indre Serpytyte’s work explores history, individual and collective memory and loss, relating to her family history and that of Lithuania, her native country, immediately prior to its independence from Soviet occupation. The artist’s recent work 1944 – 1991 examines anti-Soviet resistance in Lithuania, the so-called ‘war after the war’. Her images invoke the memory of these events by visiting actual sites, including photographing the forests of the so called ‘forest brothers‘ and former houses of NKVD-NKGB-MVD-MGB Soviet forces.

2013 marks 20 years since Street Level staged the first major exhibition of Baltic photography in Britain, which included work from Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. This current exhibition focuses on photography from Lithuania, including significant work from the 80s and 90s. A critical component is the inclusion of some work by little known artists groups which expressed a postmodern view of the world and a shift from traditional approaches - the Carnavora group, and the mysterious and untypical Doooooris.

It's a way of seeing that is both intimate and privileged, revealing the unexpected in the familiar. More →
