Gintaras Jaronis, while realizing his personal creative activities in 2014-2021, mostly photographed fragments of everyday environments and travels, using infrared photography. In this way, he sought to distance himself from the fixation of a specific time/event. He immersed himself in the world of symbols, memories, and the “mystical” world… In recent years, he has been implementing ideas in photo compositions of abstract forms using common digital photography techniques.
