My history was a curation of steps towards my future visions, with the present being the modulator of the process. At all points, I had an emphasis on cognitive development. Skills like constructing, cutting, draping, and sewing can be learned by anyone, they are not a reflection of an idea. They are simply skills, nevertheless necessary to obtain. After studying Costume Design at Vilnius Academy of Arts, I focused a few years on improving them. To think like a designer means being sensitive and susceptible to what is happening in the present, how it is influenced by the past, and transcending this into an idea of the future. You are implementing diversity and flexibility to suggest a solution for the previously formulated problem, which is probably the hardest part. This is what makes me a designer in the first place.
