ESCAPE (2023)

ESCAPE is a photo-poetry project, turning Poetry into Photos. It’s a series of photo pairs where each pair corresponds to a poem.  

ESCAPE is a reflection on self-identity, escaping and trying to find support in the surrounding space and in oneself. Poles one can grasp not to get swept away by the strong current of a narrow river.

As we walk around the city, studying our bodies, experiencing our muscles, we often return to the memories of something precious to us.

This is where you first met the person you love, and this is where you realized something very important. Just like the space in which we live, our body can also become a map of memories: a bend, a scar, a pose, a gesture that holds in itself a connection with the memory that miraculously shapes our present out of the past. 

The project “ESCAPE” is a collaboration of two authors: Anastasia Segrenyova (photography, idea) and Anastasia Sidorevich (poetry, idea, model).
