Lietuvos simboliu pasirinkau LIETUVI
KALB, nes tai yra vienas pagrindini tautins tapatybs veiksni. Bdama seniausia
indoeuropiei kalba, LIETUVI KALBA
nusipelno ypatingo dmesio. Kalboje telpa
labai daug kas: istorija, kultra, kryba, paveldas, savitumas, bendryst. Tai tarsi tautos
kodas, jos gyvavimo bei ilikimo pagrindas ir
esminis skiriamasis ymuo. Vienas grafini,
regim kalbos iraikos simboli galt bti
garsiakalbis, ruporas. Jis knija nematerial
gars, j sustiprina.

I chose Lithuanian language as a

symbol of Lithuania, because it is one of the
major factors of national identity. Lithuanian language, as one of the oldest Indo-European language requires special attention. Language can encompass many things:
history, culture, crafts, heritage, individuality,
community. It is as if a code of a nation, a basis
of its existence and survival and generally - a
substantial distinctive mark. One of graphic,
visible symbol of language expression could
be megaphone, because it embodies immaterial sound and strengthens it.

Uaugau nepriklausomoje Lietuvoje, todl
Tvyn, kuri pastu, yra jauna ir nesubrendusi. Sunku bt surasti simbol valstybei,
kuri tik pradjo brsti ir nepaliaujamai
absorbuoja visk, kas vyksta u jos rib. A
sivaizduoju Lietuv tarsi beform organin
mas, kurioje vyksta evoliucija aik sudting organizm. Todl Lietuvos simboliui
labiausiai tikt kiauinis, kurio viduje brsta
ateities simbolis. Kiauinis, mano manymu,
simbolizuoja tyrum, gimim. is kiauinis
buvo pagimdytas senosios Lietuvos. Ar gims naujasis organizmas bus panaus senj, parodys laikas.

I grew up in independent Lithuania; that is

why the homeland I know is young and immature. It is difficult to find a symbol for a country that has just begun to grow and constantly
absorbs everything that is happening behind
the borders. I see Lithuania as an amorphous
organic substance, where an evolution to complex organism occurs. Thus the most suitable
symbol for Lithuania could be an egg, containing a growing symbol of future. In my opinion,
the egg symbolizes pureness, birth; this egg
was given birth by the old Lithuania. Only
time will tell whether the newborn organism
will be just like the old one.

Lithuanian symbol or Lithuanian brand?

Brands should not necessarily be connected to
history or identity of the nation. But who we
are? What kind of people we are, what culture,
history and religion we have and how it should
be possible to encompass everything and create
a single and united symbol?
Neolithic amulet made of amber (a figure of
a man) is a small part of our history that tells
a lot about our people, their history, religion
and culture.

Vilniaus miesto krimo legendoje svarbiausiu simboliu laikomas GELEINIS VILKAS.
Legenda pasakoja, kad Lietuvos kunigaiktis
Gediminas susapnavo ant kalno staugiant
gelein vilk. Pabuds ryte, kreipsi yn
Lizdeik, kad jis iaikint sapn. Lizdeika
tar, kad kunigaiktis privalo pastatyti pil,
kuri savo tvirtumu prilygs geleiniam vilkui,
o garsas apie nauj miest pasklis po vis pasaul ir prilygs imto vilk staugimui.

The most significant symbol in the legend

of the establishment of Vilnius is Iron Wolf.
The legend tells that Lithuanian Duke Gediminas dreamt about a howling iron wolf on
a hill. When he awaked he asked his priest
Lizdeika to explain the dream. Lizdeika told
that the Duke of Gods must build a castle
that will be as tough as an Iron Wolf and the
fame of that castle (city) will be equal to the
howling of one hundred wolfs and will be
spread to the whole world.

iuometins Lietuvos simboliu galt tapti
kiek perfrazuotas Baltijos kelio vaizdinys.
Kadaise mro siena stojusi Lietuva iandien
virsta klaustuko enklu?
Ar to mes siekme?
Ar taip sivaizdavome dabartin Lietuv?
Visiems didiulis retorinis klausimas...

A symbol of present Lithuanian nowadays

could become an image of slightly rephrased
Baltic Way.
Does Lithuania, once stood as a brick wall
becomes a question-mark today?
Is this it what we sought?
Is this how we imagined present Lithuania?
A serious rhetorical question for all of us

Lietuva X
Lietuva man vis dar atrodo terra incognita.
Tiek irint i alies, tiek ir stebint i vidaus:
begal neatrast galimybi ir nepastebt
privalum, kad net patys danai nesuvokiame... Kyla natralus klausimas, kada gi
suprasime, kad nesame nei pasaulio provincija, nei Europos centras?

Lithuania X
For me, Lithuania is terra incognita from both
inside and outside: numerous undiscovered
possibilities and unseen advantages that even
us, Lithuanians are unconscious of them
From here a questions rises: when will we finally
understand, that we are neither backwoods of
the world, nor the centre of Europe?

Mano nuomone, lietuviki audini ratai
puikiai reprezentuoja Lietuv.
Vienas rykiausi ir labiausiai ms al atspindini simboli man yra kaiytine technika iausti ornamentiniai gli motyvai ant
prijuosi. Daniausiai ant kuklaus tamsaus
dugno iaustos rykios gls, ak traukianios ypatingais spalv deriniais. Labai tiksli
geometrin simetrija ir spalvin asimetrija
ornament paveria sunkiai nuspjamu.
Kaiytins gls avi savo vairiapusikumu,
i tamsos inyraniomis vytiniomis spalvomis. Neprofesionalams danai atrodo,
kad tai siuvinjimas. Tas atlikimo paslaptingumas taip pat labai svarbi savyb.

I think that Lithuanian patterns on fabric

nicely represent Lithuania.
For me, the most noticeable and representing our country symbol are ornamented motives of flowers weaved on aprons by using
felt technique usually flowers of bright, eyecatching colour mixture on a simple black
background. Geometric symmetry together
with colour asymmetry makes the ornament
hardly predictable. Flowers made by using
felt technique charm the spectator with their
versatility. Amateurs usually think that it is
simple embroidery. The mystery of the action
itself is a substantial quality as well.

In Lithuanian folk art a lily is compared to femininity. This symbol can be seen as a part of a
Lithuanian tree of life and on dowry chests.
Similarly, an oak tree is compared to masculinity and courage. Winners and conquerors are
awarded with crowns made of its leaves. Thus
masculine and feminine intertwines in the ornament, and the spirit of Lithuania is strengthen with national colours yellow, green and red.

We are ambitious and surprising, pragmatic

tradition with an injection of individual sense

The first time I have encountered with an issue

of Lithuanian symbol was during the process
of making handles for the desk of President
of Lithuania. My choice was completely ordinary symbol of Vytis the knight. I even used
a relief of Vytis from a mold of a button, taken
from Lithuanian soldier clothing, because my
goal was to give the table a historical continuity.
I think that the symbol of a country should be
stable, obtaining the value with each century.

It is a symbol of Lithuanian perpetual fight
with defeats and victories for substantial
existential matters even in micro everydaylife. This symbol associates with attempts to
survive in up-to-date and globalized world
while striving to preserve fundamental virtues and identity of a nation.

Lithuania, as well as a fir tree, is often surrounded by mystery or even mystique, that is
why one should approach it carefully, without
rush, because one can not only miss subtle nuances, but also stab oneself, if acted carelessly.
A fir tree comes from conifer family that gave
amber to Lithuania; a fir tree, as distinct
from this marvelous stone, is a living organism, surviving harsh conditions and still
managing to grow and green. That is why it
reminds me Lithuania.

A line and a full-stop everything is simple,

like Lithuanian landscape - calm, subtle,
smooth, but with potential. It is where YOU
can be a line or a full-stop! Line general
stream, full-stop originality, new ideas,
meaningful action; a significant contrast.

Man su Lietuva asocijuojasi du simboliai.
Vienas kokia Lietuva turt bti. Kitas
kokia yra realyb. ydras takas tai ideali
Lietuva. ydras yra Lietuvos dangus graiomis dienomis. ydros spalvos energija tai
tiesa, tikjimas ir krybikumas. Tai yra Lietuva, kurios daugelis nori. Realybje, deja,
Lietuva man primena plyt, kakieno pastatyt apribojim, draudim judti priek.

For me, two symbols associate with Lithuania: one what Lithuania should be like, the
other what it is in reality. Blue dot means
ideal Lithuania. Lithuanian sky is blue during beautiful days. The energy blue colour
contains is related to truth, believing and
creativity. This is Lithuania that everyone
wants it to be. However, reality is different
I can see it as traffic sign no thoroughfare,
a restriction, a prohibition to move forward.

Rytis Zaveckas
Dizainerio, gimusio Panevyje, senelis
dar A.Smetonos laikais gamino baldus. Yra
tikimyb, kad savo minimalistin stilistik
Rytis Zaveckas perm i jo. 1994 metais dizaineris baig studijas Vilniaus universiteto
Komunikacijos fakultete ir pradjo dirbti
P.Gudyno restauravimo centre. Ten gytos
inios turjo takos kuriant naujus baldus.
19992000 metais jis dirbo technologij
mokytoju. Nuo 2000 met usiima bald
ir kit interjero dekoravimo priemoni kryba bei profesionalia gamyba. Nuo 2003
met kasmet dalyvauja Litexpo parodose
Baldai. Taip pat dalyvavo iose parodose:
Baltic Furniture (Ryga, 2006, 2008), Tendence and Lifestyle 2007 (Frankfurtas prie
Maino),Evroekspomebel 2009 (Maskva).
Reikmingiausias dizainerio darbas sukurtas bendradarbiaujant su dizainere Julija
Eurobabelis.

During early 20th century, Rytis Zaveckass

grandfather was working as a furniture maker
and it is thought that Rytis Zaveckas intercepted the minimalistic style from his grandfather. In 1994 the designer graduated from Faculty of Communication of Vilnius University
and started working in the restoration centre
of P.Gudynas. The knowledge he acquired had
influence on designing new pieces of furniture. From 1999 to 2000 the designer worked
as a teacher of technologies, and since year
2000 he has been working as a manufacturer
and designer of furniture and interior dcor.
Since 2003 he annually participates in the exhibition Furniture; he presented his works in
Baltic Furniture 2006 and 2008, Ryga, Tendence and Lifestyle 2007 in Frankfurt, Evroekspomebel 2009 in Moscow. The most significant work of this designer is Eurobabel, in
collaboration with fashion designer Julija.

I balt geni iliko tik lietuviai ir latviai. Tai

A sun was used as a symbol in different cultures; however, only us, Lithuanians have
preserved it, and it rightly belongs to us.
Moreover, I can see a parallel between the
solitude of Gediminas castles tower and
two still extant Baltic tribes (now nations),
Lithuanians and Latvians.

LITHUANIA THAT CREATES it means

that we are looking to the future, not to the
past (the idea would serve as a counterbalance to such clichd phrases like BRAVE
LITHUANIA or LITHUANIA THE HEART
OF THE BALTICS), because only Lithuania
that creates can survive next 100 years. If we
were brave or the heart of Baltics only, we
would dissolve, we would be eaten by others.
