An exhibition "Limits of Growth" by the Lithuanian contemporary artist Julija Pociūtė, will be on view at Meno Parkas Gallery in Dusseldorf (Dorotheenstr. 22) at April 30–May 22.
In the exhibition “Limits of Growth” will be shown
photography’s, sculptures and videos created previously by artist. This time
Julija Pociūtė is regrouping her artworks in space, she is joining different
materials and creating new narrative dealing with question of human‘s impact on
environment.
Those relations between artworks purifies a sense of temporality, but at the
same time – constant efforts of trying to diminish it are felt. For example,
she is taking photos of the cross formed greenery in the cemetery – artist is
questioning the meaning of a cross, she opposes natural flow of nature to human
urge to control it in order to create a symbol.
Even the name of exhibition keeps in itself inevitable opposition between
natural processes of the nature and human effort to master them for own sake.
In the exhibition reality is viewed in various aspects, with the help of
different materials, points of view, trying to keep the tension between
opposites. At the same time perceiving it all as natural and unavoidable
process of constant and invincible transformation of time and space in each
moment and each detail.

In her creative practices she is combining photography, glass art, and various objects that are reflecting or emitting light and video installations.
