Giedrė Mockeliūnaitė is a Lithuanian-born multimedia artist, visual artist, and storyteller whose practice spans painting, performance, and direction. Her work is rooted in movement, emotion, and sensory experience, shaped by a background that bridges psychology, acting, and live performance.

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and is a graduate of the Lee Strasberg Film and Theatre Institute in New York, where she trained as an actor. Before fully dedicating herself to visual art, Mockeliūnaitė built an international career as a professional dancer and actress, performing lead roles in theatre and film and touring internationally. These formative years cultivated a deep sensitivity to rhythm, physical presence, and emotional resonance, elements that continue to inform her visual language.

Since 2018, Mockeliūnaitė has developed a distinctive painting practice characterised by bold abstraction, saturated colour, and rhythmic compositions. Her works translate the logic of performance into the visual field, exploring the tension between motion and stillness, intensity and contemplation. Gesture, repetition, and layered surfaces act as carriers of memory and sensation, creating spaces where emotion and imagination unfold intuitively rather than narratively.

Her solo exhibitions Kind of Blue, Urban Garden, and Thee/One trace the evolution of her artistic voice. Kind of Bluedrew inspiration from the improvisational language of jazz, paying tribute to Miles Davis through abstract interpretations of rhythm and emotional flow. Urban Garden transformed an industrial space into a meditative environment, reflecting on the relationship between urban intensity and inner stillness. Thee/One introduced a more introspective and dreamlike dimension, informed by Japanese aesthetics and an imagined architecture of joy.

In 2025, Mockeliūnaitė presented Venice Junction at Palazzo Smith Mangilli Valmarana during the Venice Film Festival. Conceived as an immersive, multisensory exhibition, the project united painting, sound, scent, and spatial choreography into a cohesive experiential narrative.

Alongside her studio practice, she works as a Creative Director and Art Director, collaborating across cinema, theatre, photography, fashion, and performance. At the core of her work is a belief in art as a transformative force, one that merges disciplines, expands perception, and creates emotionally charged spaces guided by movement, memory, and story.
