Autoportretas 1992

This 1992 self-portrait by Lithuanian artist Sarunas Sauka (1958-present) is a bold and expressive work that uses a distorted, almost grotesque, representation of the artist's features to explore themes of self-image and identity. The painting depicts the artist pulling his ears and sticking his tongue out in a comical, yet somewhat unsettling, manner. This self-portrait, titled "Autoportretas," is a powerful example of Sauka's signature style, which is known for its bold brushwork, vivid colors and exploration of personal themes. The painting exemplifies his skill in capturing both the physical and psychological realities of the human experience.
