2023 Lantern Project in Lithuania

We produced animal and flower lanterns for this Lithuania project, bringing bold silhouettes, patterned surfaces and colorful garden scenes into a woodland setting. These project photographs show the collection illuminated among the trees and snow.

Project overview

Animals, flowers and walk-through forms

Location: Lithuania
Project year: 2023
Our work: Lantern production

Ocean Art Lantern made the lantern installations shown in this project collection. Elephants, zebras, giraffes and other animals sit alongside flowers, birds and sculptural leaves. Curved flower stems and snake-shaped arches give the path its own larger features.

The collection works at different heights: low flowers sit near the ground, animal groups fill the middle view, and tall necks, leaves and arches rise above them.

Along the path

A repeating arch becomes a lantern feature

The snake form extends through a series of illuminated arches. Its patterned surface continues from the raised head around the curves, creating a long, recognizable feature between the trees.

Illuminated snake-shaped arches extending along a woodland path — Repeating curved forms create a tunnel-like sequence along the path.

Animal lanterns

Distinct shapes, paired figures and varied poses

Our animal pieces use more than surface color to distinguish each group. The elephant and rhinoceros groups pair large and small forms. Giraffes introduce slender vertical shapes, while zebras and tapirs carry strong contrasting patterns.

The spotted cats are arranged on rock-shaped bases at different heights. Their standing and seated poses make the group readable from more than one angle.

Large and small elephant lanterns standing together among snowy trees — The elephant group pairs a broad adult form with a smaller companion.

Zebra lanterns with black and white stripes in a snowy woodland display — Black-and-white striping follows the contours of the zebra forms.

Two illuminated giraffe lanterns rising among woodland trees — The giraffes add tall, slender silhouettes to the animal collection.

Two tapir lanterns with contrasting dark and pale body panels — Contrasting body panels make the tapir forms distinct at night.

Rhinoceros lanterns with curved body panels and prominent horns — The rhinoceros group uses broad bodies and pronounced head details.

Spotted cat lanterns arranged at different heights in the woodland display — Different poses give the spotted-cat group a varied outline.

Layered scenes

Leaves, birds and a frog in the garden

Broad green leaves form a canopy over a frog and pink flowers. Hanging strands of light add a finer texture below the leaf edges.

Elsewhere, flamingos gather around a blue pond-shaped feature, and a parrot rests on a tree-shaped support. These groups bring different outlines and colors into the woodland display.

Broad green leaf lanterns above a frog and pink flowers — A high leaf canopy and lower flowers build a layered garden scene.

Pink flamingo lanterns around a blue circular display base — The flamingos form a compact group with contrasting neck positions.

A colorful parrot lantern perched on a tree-shaped support — Layered color shapes define the parrot wings and tail.

Color and shape

Flowers and wings at closer range

The flower collection ranges from recognizable tulip shapes to more sculptural forms with curled petals and raised centers. The butterfly adds a broad patterned surface beside these rounded forms.

Multicolored flower lanterns with curved petals and raised centers — Curved petals and raised centers give the flowers a sculptural profile.

Multicolored tulip lanterns with green stems in the snow — Long stems lift the tulip flowers above their leaves.

A closer look

Patterns follow the three-dimensional form

On the zebra, the black stripes follow the head, cheeks and muzzle rather than sitting on a flat outline. Around the eye, smaller curved markings add expression.

The pink flower uses overlapping petal layers above a separate leaf. Its illuminated surface reveals the curved panel lines and the soft changes in color across each petal.

A different theme

Reindeer, a sleigh and a tree

The project collection also includes a seasonal display. The paired photographs show reindeer with branching antlers, followed by a red sleigh, gift shapes and an illuminated tree.
