A.Z. (Antanas Zabielavičius) is an artist grinding meadows into dust, shaping wartime projectiles from soil, and turning the smell of daily bread into a language. Rather than adapting to conventional art frameworks, he builds his own. His practice is rooted in a life ecosystem where art, finance, and existence operate as one interconnected structure.
His current work moves toward a point where Life Art begins as an open field: from the Declaration of Shadow Rights, proclaimed through silent reading, to projects exploring art, value, and alternative models of artistic life.
The artist's practice is supported by an experimental art fund, Architecture of Silence.
