Created during two years of living in Japan, the works reflect themes of emotional pressure, silence, and the unseen psychological spaces beneath daily routines. Held in a quiet gallery space tucked behind a small garden in Dazaifu, the exhibition invites visitors into an intimate atmosphere of painting and reflection.<\/p>\n<p>Ruta Slivkiene is a Lithuania-born artist based in Japan whose oil paintings explore themes of memory, labor, tenderness, grief, and domestic life. Using layered brushwork and recurring motifs such as mountains, hands, and household objects, her work reflects the texture of lived experience and emotional memory.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ruta-Slivkiene.jpeg?resize=1400%2C1528&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"please see me\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1528\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-177472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ruta-Slivkiene.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ruta-Slivkiene.jpeg?resize=275%2C300&amp;ssl=1 275w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ruta-Slivkiene.jpeg?resize=938%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 938w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ruta-Slivkiene.jpeg?resize=768%2C838&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 May 15, 2026 (Fri) ~ May 17, 2026 (Sun)<br \/>\n\u2022 10:00~17:00<br \/>\n\u2022 Free entry<br \/>\n\u2022 Gallery Waremokou \/ Dozo Wabi<br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/R7GyewRbze3DgpVKA\" target=\"_blank\">3-2-10 Saifu, Dazaifu City, Fukuoka<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rutasart.com\/exhibition\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.rutasart.com\/exhibition<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A three-day exhibition by Lithuania-born artist Ruta Slivkiene exploring the tension between inner identity and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30291,"featured_media":177472,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"class_list":["post-177473","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","location-dazaifu","event-type-art","en-US"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/177473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/30291"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=177473"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/177472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=177473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=177473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
