Once I was within the areas the place she lived or met Žygimantas, I imagined and tried to really feel the spirit of that point.
It appeared to me that Barbora’s soul was serving to me to create. Whereas delving into the scenario of Barbora Radvilaitė, I used to be struck by Barbora’s love story and tragic destiny. The fragility of the physique, a merciless illness and turning into a queen in such unfavorable circumstances,” says Kristina Norvilaitė-Geniusienė.

The exhibition assortment consists of works made in numerous strategies: linen carvings pressed on wooden, monotypes impressed by Barbora’s letters and assemblage. Figuring out that the essence lies within the particulars, it’s needed to not lose sight of the attention motif that’s always showing within the set devoted to Barbora. Within the almond-shaped, halo-like silhouette of the imaginative and prescient equipment, a tragic and vivid spirit materialized – precisely what the eagerness of affection between two folks was characterised by.
