To mark the 150th anniversary of Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis’ birth, we invite you to experience a unique artistic creation by Loreta Roževičiūtė-Elksnė and the creative group “Vėjo rožė”: the 3D artwork “The Three-Dimensional Sea Sonata”, on display in Palanga, near the iconic Palanga Pier. Mounted on a custom 3.5-meter-high metal easel, this striking installation stands as a cultural landmark by the sea, inviting locals and visitors to embark on a visual journey.

This is no ordinary image – it is an autostereogram, creating an illusion of infinite depth. When viewed with a relaxed gaze, a ship in the palm of a hand and two lighthouses on the sea horizon emerge from within the abstract pattern – a hidden three-dimensional scene that reveals itself only to those who take a moment to engage.

"The Three-Dimensional Sea Sonata" is inspired by the works of Čiurlionis. The surface pattern is based on his painting “Sonata – Allegro”, while the hidden 3D image reimagines a scene from “Sonata – Andante”. This fusion of modern visual technology with classical art pays deep tribute to Čiurlionis’ legacy.

Measuring 1.6 x 2.5 meters, this is one of the largest autostereograms in the world. Nearby, an informational stand offers viewing instructions as well as Čiurlionis’ poem “The Sea”, reflecting his profound connection to this elemental force of nature.

In the summer of 2025, visitors to Palanga will have the rare opportunity to experience the sea not only through its natural beauty, but also through art that speaks through vision and sensation. The autostereogram offers a journey into a mystical dimension, sparking emotion and joy – while even benefiting the eyes. It’s both a visual challenge and a delight.

Come and uncover the hidden story within "The Three-Dimensional Sea Sonata" – see Čiurlionis’ creative spirit through new eyes.
