Inna Etuvgi - Scrolling Time - Catawiki Special Edition

SCROLLING TIME
Fine Art Print by Inna Etuvgi

"Scrolling Time" acts as a mirror to our 21st-century digital rituals, capturing a modern trance: a state where we "chew" through an endless feed of news, inflating information like fragile bubbles before they dissolve into nothingness.

This portrait is a humorous yet pointed reflection of our new habits, highlighting through the visual language of the Dutch Golden Age how little we have changed as humans. It shows how the infinite scroll melts our minutes into a soft oblivion, blurring the boundary between true presence and the digital void.

Don't you feel the fragility of time, disappearing one swipe at a time?

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Inna Etuvgi is a Swedish-Chukchi art photographer and digital artist, internationally recognised as an Arte Laguna Prize finalist (Venice) and a recipient of the Swedish Arts Grants Committee grant. Born in a remote Arctic village in Chukotka and trained in technical cybernetics, she began her artistic practice in 2020 and has since exhibited across Europe — in Venice, London, Barcelona, Palermo, and San Marino.

Etuvgi lives with aphantasia — she cannot see images in her mind. Her camera and AI serve as extensions of her visual imagination, allowing her to create what she cannot picture internally. Through macro photography she enters the hidden worlds of mosses, lichens, and dewdrops; through digital art she gives form to psychological states and inner archetypes. Both are rooted in a deep sensitivity shaped by her Chukchi upbringing — an instinct to feel into every living thing.

As art critic Tabish Khan notes: "Her work transports us to other worlds — both real and imaginary, but always in harmony with nature."
