Actual size 43x63 cm


Tenderness meets strength in this contemporary portrait of a guardian figure — a feminine dandy angel in tailored white, embodying poise, restraint, and quiet power. “Delicate Defence” continues Etuvgi’s exploration of modern archetypes of protection, where elegance becomes armour and vulnerability transforms into strength.

With its refined minimalism and layered symbolism, “Delicate Defence” stands as a statement piece for collectors drawn to psychological depth, serenity, and the subtle interplay between gentleness and authority.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Inna Etuvgi is a Swedish-Chukchi art photographer whose work explores the delicate balance between nature, humanity, and technology. Growing up in the remote Arctic, where survival depends on sensitivity to nature’s smallest signs, Etuvgi developed a deep respect for the fragile ecosystems she now captures in her art.

Living with Aphantasia—an inability to visualise mental images—Etuvgi turns to nature to reflect her inner landscapes, using her camera and digital art to externalise emotions and sensations. Through her macro photography, she magnifies the intricate details of nature's smallest elements, urging viewers to see their beauty, quiet resilience, and essential role in sustaining ecosystems. Her work highlights our bond with nature and challenges the human-centred worldview, reminding us of the interconnectedness of all life and encouraging a more mindful, compassionate relationship with the natural world.

Beginning her artistic journey in 2020, Etuvgi was internationally recognised as a finalist for the Arte Laguna Prize in 2022 and received a grant from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee in 2023. As art critic Tabish Khan notes, “Her work transports us to other worlds—both real and imaginary, but always in harmony with nature.”
