Goda is a Lithuanian-born contemporary artist based in the Netherlands, working with layered, textured surfaces. Her work develops through applying, removing, and reworking material until the composition reaches a clear balance.
Her visual approach comes from an early interest in photography, where she focused on small details and how elements relate within a frame. This way of observing continues to shape her work.
She begins with a direction, guided by a certain feeling, and lets the final piece develop through direct work with the material. Along the way, changes are made, reconsidered, and sometimes undone until the work feels resolved.
Her work centres on holding emotion in a controlled form, using abstraction and layered materials to shape it without illustrating it directly. Instead of expressing it immediately, she develops it through structure until it becomes stable
