Gints Apsīts is a Latvian artist whose work in digital media delves into the surreal tension between innocence and destruction, humanity and spectacle, truth and illusion. In a world that often feels deafening, he finds solace in creation—his art emerging from silence.
Working exclusively in stark black and white, Apsīts strips away distractions, leaving only the essence—the idea, the feeling, the impact. Influenced by street art and social commentary, his work captures the absurdity and pain that shape modern existence: war masquerading as normality, children growing up amid violence, politics playing out as theater, technology serving as escape, and peace reduced to nothing more than a marketing tool.
