Saulė, Rãsos, Pasaulis is a visual and reflective journey through my summer spent living and working in Lithuania and the Baltic States during my MIT fellowship in 2024. The book combines my photography, drawings, and text to capture the profound sensory experiences of life under the Baltic sun.

Through images and observations, I explore the contrasts between long summer days and the encroaching nights, the resilience of people and landscapes, and the intersection of cultural traditions with a harsh yet beautiful environment. It’s a meditation on light, space, and the subtle ways that living in this region transforms everyday routines.

This collection offers a personal glimpse into a fleeting but transformative period, blending visual storytelling with reflections on everyday living, nature, and adaptation in the Baltic context.
