Visual poetry

Art as a way of being

Art, for me, is not an act but a breath. It is not something I do, but a space in which I exist.E verything that emerges through my work, whether writing, painting, or design, flows from a quiet, inner inspiration that guides and shapes me. My purpose is to share this inspiration as something that enlightens and connects. 

Visual poetry opens a space where silence and meaning, image and word, meet. It is an art form that invites stillness and presence, creating a place where meaning does not need to be explained, it simply unfolds.

Dialogue between word and painting

The works of Visual Poetry emerge from a dialogue between writing and painting, a conversation that began alongside the creation of the poetry collection Aurora. At times, a word gives birth to an image, at others, an image opens a space for a verse. The visuals radiate subtle vibrations that awaken silence, while the verses echo their inspiration, guiding the viewer into a space of quiet, inner listening.

In the embrace of poetry's breath

In the embrace of poetry’s breath is an artistic concept that arises from work in the field of visualp oetry and represents its natural extension. Within it, selected poetic verses intertwine with visual artworks created in response to the word, together opening an in-between space, between versea nd image, between inhalation and exhalation. Through this meeting of color and word, a quiet, subtle energy is transmitted, intended to enrich moments of presence and open a space for inner
awareness.

Each image and each written fragment becomes a tangible gift to oneself, an invitation to observe and become aware of the present moment.

Within this creative flow, poetry and painterly expression reveal themselves as breath. as something that happens naturally, effortlessly, and yet keeps us alive and present. Thus, In the embrace of poetry’s breath is not merely the name of a concept, but a state in which art is not only seen or read, but breathed, felt, and carried within us.

Letters of visual poetry - In the embraceof poetry's breath

The idea of letters revealed itself to me while I was writing New Year’s cards, when I paused for
each individual person, offered them a thought, and chose a visual image especially for them. In this process, I once again felt the power of the letter. In a world of fast digital messages, a letter sent by post is almost a forgotten ritual and precisely for that reason, all the more precious.

It is time given as a gift, focused attention and something tangible that you can hold in your hands and through which you can feel closeness.

This realization inspired me to create monthly letters from the concept of the visual works In
the embrace of poetry’s breath. Each letter thus brings together a visual image accompanied by a written text, not one that merely explains, not just a reflection or a description of something that inspires or teaches me, but one that opens a space for slowing down and conscious presence.

This subtle inspiration that quietly glows within me is something I wish to pass on. May it spread among people and offer them the softness of beauty. May it draw poetry and visual art closer, so they can be felt in our hands and, at the same time, in the quiet of the heart.

Monthly letters

Each month, a unique visual image is created, in which selected verses of poetry intertwine with visual expression to form a distinctive, harmonious whole. Alongside it, a written text emerges as well, inspirational and intuitive, born from the inspiration of the present moment.
Through it, I share and pass on my experiences of myself and the world, everything that, in a given period, speaks to me and guides me through life.

You can frame the image and hang it on the wall, where it reminds you each day of silence, beauty, and what remains.

IN THE EMBRACE OF POETRY'S BREATH

Each letter is a gentle surprise, inviting an innerdialogue and opening a space where poetry and art merge, flowing together likethe inhale and exhale of the same intimacy.

How to surrender to the letters

The artistic image of the month, together with the accompanying text, creates a dialogue that opens a space of silence.

Let the letter arrive without expectation. Open it when the moment feels right, and let it address you in its own way.

Word, image, closeness

In the embrace of poetry’s breath,
verses and forms entwine,
inviting the ear to linger.
It does not hunt for meaning,
it opens a space
where meaning can quietly arise.

-Ines
