Marta Romashina - Half Known

Half Known – Limited Edition Fine Art Print (1/15) Half Known is a self-portrait from a deeply personal series created during a period of acute anxiety. Shot in Cape Town, the image blurs the line between presence and disappearance, capturing the emotional dissonance of being seen while feeling fragmented. Softly focused and intentionally grainy, the photograph resists clarity—embodying the intangible weight of psychological unrest. Here, the artist becomes a suggestion rather than a certainty, suspended in motion, her identity dissolving at the edges. Half Known speaks to the liminal spaces we occupy during emotional upheaval: between self and other, between past and present, between recognition and retreat. This piece forms part of an ongoing exploration of the psychological self, using the body as both subject and symbol in a visual language shaped by vulnerability and inner tension. Size: Image: 40 × 60 cm Paper: Giclée print on Hahnemühle William Turner fine art paper – 100% cotton, matte finish. This museum-quality archival paper offers a textured, artisanal feel, ensuring exceptional detail and tonal nuance. Edition: Limited to 15 prints, all hand-signed and numbered by the artist on the back. Printing Process: Created with premium pigment inks for unmatched color fidelity and a guaranteed display life exceeding 100 years. Shipping: Prints are shipped directly from the artist’s Paris studio in protective tubes. Each shipment includes protective gloves for safe handling. About the Artist: Marta Romashina is an award-winning photographer whose work has been exhibited internationally and featured in Elle, L'Officiel, and Harper’s Bazaar. Based in Paris, Marta’s artistic practice moves between fashion, fine art, and autobiography—drawing from her experiences living in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Her visual language is emotionally driven and psychologically layered, often focused on the complexity of selfhood, memory, and invisible emotional states. Marta holds a Fashion Marketing degree from Shanghai, a Master’s in Fashion from Florence, and formal photography training from Cape Town.
