Edge of Chaos | Raseiniai, Lithuania
Edge of Chaos | Raseiniai, Lithuania

In February 2025, the Raseiniai Municipality hosted a remarkable photography and photo collage exhibition, bringing together the works of two extraordinary artists. The exhibition featured Samantha Heydt’s striking photo collages from her Edge of Chaos series, which explored themes of societal fragmentation and environmental decline, alongside Rūta Račiūnaitė-Simėnienė’s evocative Red–Black photo series, reflecting her unique artistic vision.

Both artists, who had previously participated in major cultural projects in Raseiniai, offered a profound commentary on the chaotic forces shaping the modern world. This long-awaited exhibition, postponed due to the pandemic, became a powerful reminder of art's ability to inspire and provoke thought in uncertain times.
