LOCATION becomes an important starting point for the 7-year-old Contour Art Gallery, which has been operating without walls and holding exhibitions in different spaces every time. Today the Gallery has become part of the Dūmų fabrikas (Smoke Factory) and its mission – to revive Naujoji Vilnia (Vileika) and turn it into a cultural attraction spot thus expanding the boundaries of the cultural map of Vilnius.

LOCATION from which the exhibited artists come from is the main reference point for their work.

Petras Lincevičius (born in 1990), an associate professor and organizer of cultural projects, is a versatile artist, known for co-authoring the fresco "The Nonexistent Space" at Vytautas Mineral Spa in Birštonas, Lithuania, and for his work on the Lithuanian film "The Basement (Rūsys)." Additionally, he is a skilled book illustrator. His works are part of notable collections, including Abu Dhabi ArtHub in the UAE, Imago Mundi – Luciano Benetton in Italy, and MO Museum in Vilnius.
Andrėja Maiburovaitė (born in 2000) is a student of the Vilnius Academy of Arts, invited to continue her Master's studies at the Hague Royal Academy of Arts. This year the artist became the finalist of the Žabolis Art Prize competition and Contour Art Gallery in collaboration with Smoke Factory invited her, as the best candidate, to participate in this exhibition.

For Contour Art Gallery, the exhibition "Locals" signifies a new chapter with the opening of its first permanent venue, aptly named The Smoke Factory. This marks an exciting milestone in the gallery's history. 

We promise to continually send out art smoke signals from this factory, keeping the creative spirit alive and thriving.
