Artwork description:

"Forest’s Mossy Soul" is a fine art macro photograph that reveals the delicate essence of the Swedish forest through two fragile moss sporophytes, captured in a quiet moment by art photographer Inna Etuvgi. Taken in the forest of Huskvarna, Sweden, this piece reflects the artist’s vision of the forest’s spirit—a gentle soul hidden within the tiny, resilient tops of moss. Vulnerable yet enduring, soft yet resilient, this image embodies the poetic beauty of nature in its most delicate forms.

This print is part of the SAGOSKOGEN collection, meaning “Fairy Tale Forest,” which invites viewers to uncover the enchanting stories of the Swedish wilderness. From mosses to lichens, each piece in the collection celebrates the hidden wonders that quietly sustain life, offering a glimpse into nature’s often-overlooked marvels.

Growing up in the Arctic, Inna developed a profound respect for nature’s fragility, learning to observe the subtle signals that reflect life’s delicate balance. Through her macro photography, she magnifies these hidden details, challenging us to appreciate their role in ecosystems and reconnect with the natural world beyond a human-centered view.

"Forest’s Mossy Soul" brings the serene, magical atmosphere of a Scandinavian forest into any space, perfect for those who seek unique, nature-inspired decor or a meaningful gift for nature lovers. Ideal for art collectors, galleries, and nature enthusiasts, this print combines the calm beauty of nature with fine art photography, offering a tranquil yet powerful addition to any home, office, or curated collection.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:


Inna Etuvgi, hailing from Russia's Arctic shores, brings her technical background to light as a Swedish art photographer. Her artistic journey began in 2020, and in 2022, she gained recognition as a finalist in the Arte Laguna Prize 16. In 2023, she received an honour from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee. Etuvgi’s works are featured in “Photography in the Visual Culture” 22/23 book.

Navigating life with Aphantasia, Inna's mind doesn't visualise, but it pulsates with vivid concepts, emotions, and sensations. She uses her camera not merely to explore the world but to externalise her unique mental landscapes, making them visible.

Art critic Tabish Khan says about Inna’s art: “her work is about transporting us to other worlds - both real and imaginary, but always in harmony with nature. She may have a mind blind to visualisation, but she has eyes and a camera that capture the beauty in the worlds that the rest of us often overlook and take for granted.”
