Edgar Askelovic, professionally known as ASPENCROW, was born in 1987 in Vilnius, Lithuania. He studied at the Vilnius Academy of Arts in Lithuania before moving to the United Kingdom to attend Birmingham City University's School of Art, where he earned a BA in Fine Art in 2013. The transition to England marked a significant turning point in Edgar's life and artistic journey. He often emphasizes how this move granted him newfound creative liberty and the ability to explore unbounded artistic expressions. During this period, Edgar started using a pseudonym.
Despite the artist's acclaim, Edgar intentionally maintains a degree of anonymity, allowing his artwork to speak independently. The artist creates each piece from conception to final product, and therefore displays strong technical skills in the manipulation of a variety of materials and scales.
Through his distinctive artistic vision, ASPENCROW continues to captivate audiences, sparking contemplation and dialogue through his sculptures.
Some of the artist's most recognizable and acclaimed works are Begging Queen, ICON, MILF, Diamond Dog, Olympe, RIRI among others.
After a decade studying and working in the UK, USA and Germany, the artist came back to his mother town Vilnius, Lithuania, where he works in his studio as a professional artist.
