Artwork description:

ON THE ROADS OF GORGEOUS CORIANDER - is an artistic macro photograph by Inna Etuvgi that captures a raindrop on coriander and symbolises heart-led journeys and dreams.

“There are millions of roads...
Put on your heart's GPS and follow...
 
Photography is a deep and multidimensional process for me. It is about meditation and delight, about search and satisfaction, about analyses, and about a special quiet state of mind—like a special inner space where the only language that can be heard is the language of colors, light, and shapes.
 
Photography is my method of understanding myself and finding a visual form for my inner dialogue. It is about senses and emotions, and there are no words... Maybe that's why, when I am trying to verbalize it and give the name to my photos, I usually get something like, "On the roads of gorgeous Coriander."

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

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.”
