Visual Poems


Amazing idea of picturing the words by Peter Pavlov...

The poem "Days" speaks about the people from the working class in Macedonia and describes their hard life. Each morning they hear the rooster’s wake-up call and start working till the sun doesn’t fall.

The poem "Lenka" speaks about a woman who works at a tobacco monopoly. She lost her life because of her exhausting job, and left her linen blouse unwoven. The lyrics are handembroidered over the seams and the mannequin is handmade out of a copper coil. A light is inserted inside to accentuate the lyrics and cast a wireframe shadow over the linen blouse.
