The deeper you dive into her photographs, the more you are drawn into the whirlpool of emotions and experiences of the heroes of this world. In Lara's works you will never see direct documentation of reality, penetrating into the very essence of things, the artist endows her photographic works with a special poetic meaning that can only be felt. Look at these cards. Agree that the artist in some incredible way manages to convey to us a sense of nostalgia for those moments that will never return. Now it's just melancholic memories.

I imagine taking it off the shelf, blowing the dust off the cover, opening it, and falling into the atmosphere of the youth of my time.”
