The structure of Lashai’s paintings is based on earth, trees, flowers and plants, i.e. the elements of nature. The language she employed is somewhat traditional, but she was successful in giving this language a new and updated accent. Her works are neither superficial illustrations of the world we see around ourselves nor images of an ideal world. Instead they are the creations of an artist who, bewildered by the richness and infinity of nature, disclosed all her artistic experience on the canvas, hoping to illustrate the evanescent moments of her surroundings. Lashai’s nature has a metaphysical significance and is the reflection of a sort of intrinsic awareness; it is a small part of a general landscape that seemingly has been painted in absolute timelessness, a nature that is actualised through its bond with humankind’s inner conflicts.
