Laury Makabresku „skradanie się” do wnętrza
Abstract
The article is rooted in personal experience: the perception of photographic works by Laura Makabresku (Kamila Kansy) presented at the Inside Chamber exhibition in the Galeria Współczesnej Sztuki Sakralnej [Contemporary Sacral Art Gallery] at the Benedictine Abbey Musem in Tyniec. Attached to the works were quotes from Jerzy Zawieyski, Bohuslav Reynek, André Frossard and Rainer Maria Rilke. The dialogue between the photograph and the word constructed in this way revealed to the viewer the process of reaching the depths of the soul, and illustrated the change of its state. The article analyses three levels of a semantic ‘deepening’ of this dialogue, based on symbol and metaphor (of a path), which also refers one to the communicative dimension of a mystical experience. These musings are preceded by a theoretical section, which explains why the thought of philosopher Vilém Flusser is the methodological basis for the analysis of the three levels of dialogue of words with photography as presented by Laura Makabresku.
