my art

Lucy Déry’s poems evoke the subtle layers of the soul: the silence of the moment, the power of change, and the possibility of rebirth. Letters in Sand / Írás a Homokban, is a bilingual work that balances on the edge of Hungarian and English, seeking to express the inexpressible. Many of the poems are accompanied by photographs, which together create an intimate, meditative space for the reader.

The themes explored in the collection include:
the fleeting nature of the moment
the relationship between humans and nature
the play of light and shadow
the transformation and strength of the feminine soul

The world of Letters in Sand / Írás a Homokban offers short, haiku-like glimpses, meditative prose poems, and translations of folk songs.

Language—sometimes soft and clear, sometimes stark and distilled—reflects the immediate vibrations of experience. The collection portrays the cycle of destruction and creation: just as a wave washes everything away, it also draws new patterns in the sand. This process is a metaphor for the movements of the soul: every loss is the antechamber to a new discovery.
