Project dedicated to Lithuanian artists living and working abroad – Pakui Hardware

The idea of such project was born in the mind of famous Lithuanian photographer Arūnas Baltėnas during his trip to the USA back in 2018. He decided to travel the world visiting diaspora artists living and working abroad, take pictures of their studios and talk about the sources of their inspiration as well as their relationship with the homeland. The material collected during Baltėnas journeys turned into essays and series of photographs.
