Summary

Jasmina Kosanović: To see what a house is like, you first have to open the door

To see what a house is like is a collection of short notes and poetic fragments, strong lyrical charge and clearly recognizable author's poetics, structured through an intimate mosaic of memories, longings and inner images. In a series of introspective records through various motifs: house, family, sea, travel, nature, which are intertwined with scenes of love, longing, loneliness and loss, body, origin and relationship to ancestors, traumas and inheritance of women in the family, the author explores identity and her own belonging.

The texts, although short and fragmentary, form a rounded whole - a mosaic of intimate records that stand between poetry and narrative miniature. It is this genre interstices that gives the manuscript a special freshness: it does not opt ​​for a linear story, but builds an atmosphere through a series of motifs, images and internal monologues. The images that build the narrative are not only descriptive, but carry a deep symbolic function: the sea is a space of longing and disappearance, food is the legacy of trauma and love, the body becomes a place of memory and resistance.

In a literary sense, the collection To see what the house is like relies on the tradition of poetic prose and fragmentary writing, but preserves its own, authentic tone. It is a manuscript that crosses the boundaries of the autobiographical and intimate and enters the sphere of universal lyricism. His strength is in his language, emotional density and ability to speak about the female experience and human longing in a way that is both poetic and deeply alive. Jasmina Kosanović is a visual artist who builds her expression through illustration and textiles, from small sculptures to spatial installations.
