Andrius Miezis’s Those Times When You Didn’t Know How Things Should Be captures the strange beauty of uncertainty - a surreal reflection on innocence, confusion, and quiet wonder. A pale, elongated figure bends awkwardly toward the ground, its head resting sideways, eyes wide with curiosity. Tiny dinosaurs wander around its feet like living memories from another age, while a single small flower trembles delicately between the figure’s fingers. The scene feels both playful and profound - a dream caught between evolution and imagination.

The composition is full of contrasts. Against a lush, patterned backdrop of green leaves, the pale figure appears ghostlike, its stillness amplifying the movement of the tiny creatures around it. The scale reversal - where dinosaurs become toys and the human form feels monumental - turns the world inside out. Every detail hums with quiet irony and tenderness. Miezis’s use of muted tones and careful texture gives the work a sense of suspended time, as though the figure has paused mid-thought in the act of rediscovering something long forgotten.

In Those Times When You Didn’t Know How Things Should Be, Miezis meditates on the awkward grace of not knowing - the fragile beauty that exists before certainty takes over. The painting becomes a gentle allegory for the moments when we are small before the mystery of life, unsure of the rules, yet somehow closer to truth.
