When traveling in Tibet, Lithuanian writer and artist Ivanauskaitė visited the lake of Mansarovar thirty kilometers from Mount Kailash, and in her voyage diary she inscribed the impression: "This is the landscape in which Andrei Tarkovsky without any decoration would have been able to shoot 'Solaris' or 'Stalker'. It is a space in which the words and the concepts lose their activity..." Is it possible to reflect arts, cinema and literature as the moments of one homogeneous becoming of creativity? Or are these two spheres - of the written word and the visual image - separated by an indispensable gap? This study tries to answer the question relying on creation and reflections of two artists from this in-between territory: Russian film director Andrei Tarkovsky (1932-1986) and Lithuanian writer, artist, traveler Jurga Ivanauskaitė (1961-2007).
