About the author
Indrė Jaskūnienė's work is dominated by reflections on the influence of the classics on us, on how they initially nurture us and give us an understanding of the ideal that we obviously want to strive for. One starts out on one's own path full of hope, but how will one go on?
"I wanted to raise the question of how we live now and what kind of dialogue we have with the values, the gods, that may still exist somewhere in our subconscious. About the compromises one makes in life. One person passes away, another one comes along, and those fundamental values seem to give him a new test all over again. Will he pass?" - says the artist.
