Sarunas Berinas is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture and photography. His sculptural practice explores bodily limitation as both an internal decision and an external force. Through wearable objects and mechanical apparatuses, he investigates how constraint shapes the body’s relationship to autonomy, vulnerability, and control.
Many of his works place the body in direct negotiation with constructed systems that mediate or interrupt ordinary actions. Familiar movements such as eating, walking, or touching are altered through restrictive devices, exposing how easily the body’s agency can be redirected by external structures. These interventions transform everyday gestures into deliberate and often uncomfortable acts, making visible the fragile balance between control and restriction.
Alongside sculpture, his photographic work examines the psychological atmosphere of urban environments. By focusing on overlooked or transitional spaces within the city, these images reflect parallel conditions of pressure, neglect, and quiet persistence.
Across both practices, Berinas approaches the body and the built environment as sites where forces of control, vulnerability, and adaptation become visible. His work considers how individuals navigate systems that shape their movement, perception, and sense of autonomy.
