Artwork description:

"Jellyfish nest" is original handprited linocut made in edition of 2 prints. Used colors: dark blue offset color, yellow for jellyfish detail and light green for the body of man figure. Paper color: light beige.

This work was created out of idea that tells a story a about union and acceptance of humans into waterlife. Jellyfish surround male figure and directly communicate with him as a sign of approval and acceptance. Water and all life inside, have their own rules of how seas perform and what they will allow into their world. Male figure, as already being a water creature, has details and elements directly on him. That represent him as creature of combined worlds, both sea and ground. The position of figure being relaxed on the sea floor and having animals around him is the perfect harmony of two incompatible worlds.

Please note that linocut print is original piece of art and it has different meaning than prints made and printed digitally.
Printmaking is traditional fine art technique that is producing multiple originals and all prints made in one edition are numbered and signed by the artist.
