Summary  The article examines the work of Joanna Pollakówna, a poet and art historian, highly sensitive to light and images, pursuing indefatigably her quest in the universe of visible signs of the Invisible. The inspiration for this reading came from two spiritual icons which seem to have a lot in common with the two poems analyzed here: the two pairs are signs of eternity and of a tension between the tangible reality and a reality that remains inexpressible. Pollakówna’s poetic personality is defined by two traits, one, a alacritous receptiveness to the movement of images and flickering meanings, and the other, a strong belief that the effort spent on tracking these fleeting objects will brings the reward of an aesthetic experience and the satisfaction of naming them. To grasp Pollakówna’s fascination with images the article introduces a finely-nuanced pair of otherwise synonymous terms,  iconophilia  and  iconodulia  (iconodulism).
