Gauri Jauhar – In the Element: Poetic Stillness in Motion
A meditative union of verse and visual art, In the Element guides readers through Earth, Fire, Air, Water, and Ether—not as distant symbols, but as intimate companions. Each element is a portal: to feeling, to reflection, to remembering what it means to be alive.
Winner of the 21st Century Emily Dickinson Award (2024), this debut collection is a decade in the making, shaped by love, impermanence, resilience—and the quiet cycles of life.
Born from a creative journey that spans photography and travel, Gauri’s work explores the ephemeral with precision and emotional clarity. Her images capture fleeting moments—an ember’s glow, the northern lights, an eternal rose a wave’s curve—while her poems echo those impressions with gentle, reverent hush.
“I have seen life come full circle—from dust to dust. This book holds that fragile moment between ending and becoming,” Gauri reflects.
Ideal for readers seeking beauty amid chaos, In the Element is for those who sense deeply and quietly, who have paused at memory’s edge and heard nature’s echo.
This book offers presence. A space to breathe, to feel, and to return — to yourself and to the elements that made you.
