CONSCIOUSNESS: LITHUANIAN MYTHOLOGY

In the Castle Branch of Kaunas City Museum, a personal exhibition of Virginijus Kašinskas’ ethno painting “Consciousness: Lithuanian Mythology” is open for visitors.

 

“Consciousness is a personal sensible perception of being and the reality. When consciousness dives into the inner world, it is referred to as self-consciousness, where the above-consciousness and sub-consciousness open up. In the works, you will see the images of above-consciousness, consciousness, and sub-consciousness. In the paintings, you will note the characters of Lithuanian folklore and the images of sub-consciousness expressed by the images of the universe,” painter V. Kašinskas describes the exhibition.
