in Lithuania. He was educated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vilnius.

He emigrated to Sweden in 1968. Naliwajko worked in painting, graphics and sculpture. In his figurative art, he combines religious symbolism, an exalted divinity with erotic elements, which gives the compositions a vibrating mood. His work is characterized by an abundance of color and dynamic forms. Naliwajko has exhibited internationally in e.g. France, Switzerland, USA. He also incorporated his dream of painting alongside his idol, Salvador Dalí.
