My latest ongoing project, “Woman and The Sea,” incorporates pine tree resin – not fossilized amber – and called “Amber Coast” is about this region. The Curonian Spit, with its amazing and unique landscape created by wind and sea, has been part of my life since childhood. Its rare wildlife and fascinating sand dunes, reminiscent of the Sahara Desert, alongside the powerful sea, have always inspired me. Women – powerful, endless, giving, mysterious, dramatic, dangerous, calm, fragile, ironic, and poetic – remind me of every tiny sand particle sliding in the wind.
