The evolution of Modern Art, brought to you by {name}

Kai Brückner

"Allure" portrays a majestic beech tree shrouded in mist. Its branches, still adorned with autumn leaves, seem to perform one last slow dance before winter.
This work is part of my photographic project "Sati Vana, the Forest of Awareness", where trees appear as entities that embody our emotional states. Entering this forest is like embarking on a journey between dream and wakefulness, where one can confront the forces of nature—and of oneself.
 You can discover the entire project on my website.

The print is produced in 29.7 × 42 cm (A3) format on Hahnemühle Museum Etching paper, a premium fine art paper that ensures extraordinary detail and long-term preservation. It includes a 2.5 cm white passepartout and is printed in my studio using a Canon Pro-1000 professional printer and Lucia Pro inks, ensuring maximum color fidelity.

This photograph is part of a limited edition of 30 copies, available starting from copy 5/30, printed in April 2025 and created in October 2024.
Each piece is personally printed, numbered, and signed, guaranteeing not only high quality but also a deep connection between the creative process and the final work. A Hahnemühle certificate of authenticity with a holographic seal is included.

For optimal viewing, I recommend displaying the work under cool lighting (5500K) or in a well-lit space.

Available in other sizes.

ABOUT ME

My name is Stefano Balma and I am a landscape photographer from Genoa, Italy, in 1988. In every phase of my life I have dedicated myself to some form of art, first with drawing, then with music and in 2019 I encountered photography, on the occasion of my first great trip in Morocco.

Nature has always been my main subject, but over the years I have tried to include more introspective themes in my shots, which have always been very important in my life. Attending a Buddhist community in the area, I developed a particular sensitivity towards themes such as impermanence and the flow of existence, which I have progressively tried to represent through rocks eroded by wind, the mutability of arctic landscapes and the movement of the trees.

Since 2023 I've started collaborations with FotoCorsi school as a tutor for photographic trips, and with the Cinque Rosso gallery for the sale of my shots.
