Mountains represent eternity, plant flowers and leaves the beauty and fragility of the moment, flowing water the constant change and transformation. 

Eastern mountain landscapes and Lithuanian motifs of rivers, trees, plains and dunes intertwine in Ina L.

The author's work invites us to let nature in and thus discover new horizons in our approach to life and ourselves.
