Roberta, also known as railaite.rob, brings hauntingly surreal visuals to life with her distinctive digital art, exploring deep-seated themes of anxiety, fear, and existentialism. Based in Lithuania, her artistic vision delves into the subconscious, weaving dreamlike narratives that resonate with our innermost emotions. Roberta’s talent shines across various mediums, including editorial illustrations, book and album covers, and mesmerizing frame-by-frame animations.

As we approach Halloween, Suburbs Gallery is thrilled to showcase her evocative work during this fittingly eerie season. Her art, with its dark undertones and profound exploration of the human condition, perfectly aligns with the atmosphere of Halloween week, inviting viewers to confront their own fears and uncertainties through her immersive creations.

Roberta's Sanctuary is a haunting and evocative piece that delves into themes of vulnerability, isolation, and the search for refuge. The faceless figure in black, pouring water into a dark pool, creates a sense of mystery and detachment, while the reaching hands below evoke a powerful sense of longing and desperation.

The interplay of light and shadow adds to the eerie, dreamlike atmosphere, with the water symbolizing life or sustenance that seems just out of reach. The tension between the indifferent figure and the expressive hands invites reflection on the fragility of sanctuary and the human need for connection.

At Suburbs Gallery, we curate digital art exhibitions and bring them to life in our physical space. We call these showcases Solo Highlights—a simple yet impactful concept. Each Highlight is a celebration of the artist’s journey.

Curation is the enduring resonance of artistic expression.
