My name is Živilė Meškauskaitė-Gomes.

I have always been drawn to literature and art, yet motherhood revealed an entirely new dimension of both — one more intimate, sensitive, and rooted in daily life.

This project grew from a wish to share how art can illuminate what motherhood often leaves unsaid, and what I find myself uncovering in it, day by day. It helps me pause and reflect on the days of the unique experience of motherhood.

I live in Vilnius with my husband, our baby son, our dog, and a baby girl soon to join us.
