UŽGAVĖNĖS (Shrove Tuesday) – is a Lithuanian carnival, which escorts winter. This holiday is not associated with any church rituals, it's more like carnival. The two major symbols of this part are the burning of the effigy of winter named MORĖ and the fight between LAŠININIS (“porky man”) who represent winter and KANAPINIS (“hempen man”) who represents spring.
My task was to create souvenir medals for Balsių community celebration.
I created medal characters for Kanapinis and Lašininis and award medals for best mask and best singer.
