Orinta Pranaityte (*1991) lebt und arbeitet in den East Midlands (UK). Als visuelle Künstlerin schafft sie Performances, Video- und Soundarbeiten. Während einer intensiven Periode während ihres Masterstudiums in Kunst an der Universität Lincoln (2016-2017) begann sie mit installativen Langzeitperformances. Ihre Praxis betrifft den Körper – seine Stärken, Schwächen und Herausforderungen in der Performancekunst. Am Body and Freedom Festival wird sich Orinta Pranaityte  in einer ein- bis zweistündigen Performance mit den architektonischen Elemente des Platzes auseinandersetzen.
