The work examines the features of the construction of space and the role of its individual details at different stages of Inna Kashezheva’s poetic creativity. In view of the ideas that have become entrenched in Russian literary criticism, the “spatial-ethical field” of the poetic “I”. Kashezheva’s poetic “I” has been explored. The importance of visual perceptions in her work is highlighted. Nuances of perception of Caucasian geography are exposed, as are the expressive features of the spatial pictures she depicts: sound, light, movement, and their modifications throughout time, as well as the influence of time on the semantics of space. Landscape and interior space-related episodes are examined, and spatial aspects associated with the intimate and personal experiences of the poetic “I” are highlighted. The image of silence plays an active role in adult creativity. Conclusions are formed about the type of space that best fits the worldview of I. Kashezheva’s lyrical “I”.
