Summary/Abstract: The subject of the article is the oeuvre of Lithuanian émigré poet and painter Edita Nazaraitė. The paper aims to find common, unifying features of her poems and paintings, to highlight some of the image-building strategies. A comparative semantic analysis of Nazaraitė‘s poetic imagery, highlighting its links with the artwork, is carried out. It is noted that the poems and paintings share the same dominant images – a cat, horse, butterfly, women’s silhouette, and others. Nazaraitė’s poetry is visual, full of details and objects, and her paintings in vivid colors are as if telling the story of a woman’s life.
