Renata Palubinskas


Lithuanian born artist Renata Palubinskas paints children caught between innocence and experience.  A divine light opens in the sky above them as they suffer the small tortures of earthly existence.  Animals take on an impish quality – sharp-toothed bunnies pull at the hem of a dress, pigs and lambs wield pitchforks and axes.  Palubinskas’s training as a museum conservator gives her work a sense of precision – these bizarre images are remarkably believable.
