This large artwork was inspired by a small forest mushroom – chanterelle – whose name echoes across languages and species:
Lithuanian: squirrel (voveraite),
Polish: hen (kurka),
Russian: fox (lisichka).
Its shape, color, and gentle presence carry surprising emotional weight. For many, it evokes childhood memories: walking in the woods with friends or family, scanning mossy ground for those wavy caps. For others, it becomes a symbol of nature’s subtle connection between textures, senses and shapes.
The composition balances simplicity with nuance, inviting viewers to slow down and notice. Just like spotting a chanterelle in the forest – it appears once you learn how to see.
