Meda Povilonytė is a multimedia artist whose work is informed by a material and process led practice, with a current focus on film, ceramics and costume. Balancing the material and immaterial, with an undefined body at centre, the boundaries of the medium and concept blur into amalgamation.
Since graduating from Fine Art and History of Art at Goldsmiths in 2021, her practice has evolved into exploring the ghost, glitch and in-between. The artworks are born from the abstraction and fragmentation of the artists image, the human form and the medium used, to challenge and explore their perceived realities and identities. The result is left as various traces, ghostly glimpses and fragments. Each artwork informs the next thematically and materially by the reincorporation of previous artwork remnants.
She is currently studying an MSc in Conservation of Contemporary Art and Media at UCL, training in the care and maintenance of artworks, at odds with her practice of destruction. The MSc now informs an intravenal inspection of her artwork structures, details and ecosystems.
