How to write a poem without using any words? This is a question many
want to answer… However, some had succeeded in it. Photographer Elizaveta
Lavrenteva is one of them. Every image she produces is a poetic outburst where
the artist creates an intimate dialogue with each and every one who sees her
imagery.
Lavrenteva is very specific in her method – black and white photography
that captures some interesting fragments of cultural achievements around the
world. Due to that, we can say that her professional interest is in the area of art
and beauty. It can be seen in the images of architecture that the artist produces.
In all of them, we see still rational forms. This way Lavrenteva creates a visual
ode to the main statement the establisher of BAUHAS Walter Gropius made
about architecture being the highest form of art.
So, if anyone asks you how to write a poem with no words, you can
always refer to Elizaveta Lavrenteva's oeuvre, which is a photographic verse
praising art and culture around the world.
