Exhibition Living Patterns

Evgenia Emets’ works bring together poetry, calligraphy, geometry and ecological imagination. Rooted in her long-term practice of listening to the living world, the works explore forests, plants and natural systems as places of memory, intelligence and transformation. Through hand-drawn language, repeated words, organic forms and poetic inscriptions, Emets creates visual languages that invite the viewer into a slower, more attentive relationship with nature.

The exhibition brings together works from several interconnected cycles, including Forest Time, Rewilding Time and Poetry Mandalas. In Forest Time, seven plants are explored through their ecological, historical, cultural and spiritual meanings, with their stories retold through poetry and calligraphic works on paper. Rewilding Time expands this inquiry into the forest as a living ecosystem: complex, wild, relational and continuously becoming.

Alongside these works, Poetry Mandalas reveal another aspect of Emets’ practice: unique calligraphic drawings where meaningful words are repeated within geometric forms. Created as visual mantras, they hold language as image, rhythm and presence. Across all these series, Emets’ art moves between written word and living form, offering works that are contemplative, precise and visionary.
