R.Požerskis discovers in documentary terms precursory signs of time not only in the sacred revelations but also in the more terrestrial revelations: in the relations of the different generations However, by lending paying attention to the archaic traditions of the Lithuanian countryside and not losing the photographer with such an ability to marvel a fixed life, R. Požerskis has not shown his remissions as a weird masked in the author's works himself in an unknown sociocultural context. in the environment.
The role of a photographer in this case was not limited to an "ethnological" observation without consideration. He managed to discover a personal emotional connection with the unique Lithuanian world of the countryside and brought it closer to a wider circle of spectators.
People marked by the works of R. Požerskis, their typologies and attitudes, traditions and lifestyles are more than just scenes from the lives of foreigners. In the "Release" cycle, they form a solid image of Lithuania. Although humanity is only temporarily and spiritually communicative and socially based on social relations, it is only temporarily experienced, but photography preserves the signs of this experience and creates a more lasting common identity, a foundation of Lithuanian nationalism
. Another Lithuanian photographer, combining his vision of the humanist world with the motives of Lithuanian traditions in his work, and all this aura of holiness, seems to have created a cycle of photography that is also distinguished in the context of international photography. "Release" convinces that the photographer has managed to discover a particular small world whose boundaries are marked by a specific historical period and social, cultural and political circumstances.
