Description from the seller
Title: The Unseen World
Photographer: Mariska Karto (The Netherlands)
Print: Giclée – The artwork is printed on 300 gsm high-quality Hahnemühle Baryta art paper.
Edition: 1/25 – Signed lower right on the verso.
The artwork is in excellent condition and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.The artwork is sent in a tube, together with certificate of Authenticity (signed by artist).
About this work:
This is a photo collage. All photo's photographed by myself.
This botanical-surreal artwork invites the viewer into a world where nature and imagination seamlessly merge. At its center is a butterfly, a symbol of transformation and life, within which a hidden universe unfolds. Its forms reveal not only subtle traces of life, but also two human figures and mysterious, imaginary beings that gradually emerge to those who take the time to look closely.
The work is inspired by the idea that our planet still holds many secrets. Undiscovered insects, unknown animals, and new life forms may still be hidden within the greenery of our Earth. This concept takes visual form here: a dreamlike world that feels both familiar and intriguingly otherworldly.
The organic lines and botanical elements enhance the sense of growth and discovery. Every detail seems to breathe, as if it could come to life at any moment.
This piece is an ode to the endless creativity of nature, both seen and unseen and to the power of imagination that invites us to look beyond what first meets the eye.
