Inna Etuvgi - Exoskeleton - Catawiki Special Edition - 1/25

EXOSKELETON fine art print by Inna Etuvgi from the series Brutal Vulnerability «All those structures we keep living by — do they still hold anything, or just seem to?» We surround ourselves with brutal things — buildings, walls, weapons, rules. We build them all out of our own vulnerability. We are animals, no longer living wild. Soft creatures who raise hard worlds with rules of their own. We are not the wild flowers of life anymore — we are the selected kind: bred, arranged, kept. The softer we are, the harder we build. But how much of it still needs to stand? ABOUT THE PRINT: Type: Original Fine Art Print (Macro Photography) Image Size: 30 x 37,5 cm Paper Size: 33 x 41 cm Paper: Archival Museum-quality paper, 100% cotton, 300gsm Edition: 1/25 Authenticity: Signed and numbered by the artist; includes a Certificate of Authenticity. Condition: New, shipped directly from the artist's studio in Sweden. EDITION This work is presented in a Special Catawiki Edition (30 x 37,5 cm image on 33 x 41 cm paper). The artist's larger-scale Studio and Master Editions are sold through premier online galleries; this size is not available through any gallery or platform. It can only be acquired directly from the artist's studio or through selected auction releases. Produced to the same archival standards as all editions. 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."

fine art print by Inna Etuvgi
from the series Brutal Vulnerability


«All those structures we keep living by — do they still hold anything, or just seem to?»

We surround ourselves with brutal things — buildings, walls, weapons, rules. We build them all out of our own vulnerability.

We are animals, no longer living wild. Soft creatures who raise hard worlds with rules of their own.
We are not the wild flowers of life anymore — we are the selected kind: bred, arranged, kept.

The softer we are, the harder we build. But how much of it still needs to stand?
