le cinéaste de l’invisible
The work of Audrius Stonys takes the form of a quest opening onto an imagination composed of fragility and poetry. Heaven and earth, above and below, the immanent and the transcendent inhabit his filmmaking. His latest achievements – principally short and medium-length films — question the very gesture of filming through the use of celluloid and digital technology. This way of working influences the aesthetics of his films; it is not uncommon for film accidents to be shown to the spectator. His cinema is a form of speech, via images, directly influenced by his life under the lies and propaganda of the Soviet era.
