Visualization of Sergei Yesenin’s poem “The Dark Man”
This video installation represents the first experimental stage of the master project. It emerged from a close reading of the poem and a search for a visual language that could translate its mood, rhythm, and emotional weight into moving images. By combining poetic narrative with carefully composed visuals, the work invites viewers to experience the text on both a literary and sensory level. While it stands as a complete piece in its own right, it also serves as promotional material and a conceptual foundation for the larger master project.
