Jonkute trys to capture 'being' by depicting 'un-being'. Jonkute's touch is metaphysical. She paints emptiness, nightfall, empty rooms and unrecognized spaces in which one can sense that a man has just been here. Crumpled sheets, the bent contours of a tablecloth, or head marks on a pillow speak directly of the touch of a human body, physical marks.
-Virginija Vitkiene, art historian/curator

Agne Jonkute, born in 1974, creates a wide range of works including painting and photography, and is also a performance artist. Her subject matter has consistently been herself, her own being and an exploration of who and why she is. Since she found the evidence of her own existence on her pillow one morning, Jonkute has approached the quest for being by depicting un-being.
