Vilnius-based artist Marta Frėjutė develops installations, sculptural objects, and research‑driven image practices that examine how fiction and memory structure everyday experience within shifting historical contexts. Her practice interrogates power structures, colonial imaginaries, and the fetishisation of technological and scientific progress through simulated artefacts, archival material, and constructed museological displays.
Frėjutė’s work has been presented internationally at leading institutions such as the Contemporary Art Centre (CAC) Vilnius, the Centre of Polish Sculpture in Orońsko, and the Museum of Physics in Naples, alongside exhibitions at experimental project spaces such as Lokomotif and SODAS 2123. Frėjutė currently leads a multi‑year public programme connecting contemporary artists with seniors at the National Gallery of Art in Vilnius.
