ABOVE THE CLOUDS

Fine Art Photography Print by Inna Etuvgi

Image size: 29 x 38.5 cm

"Above the Clouds" is a fine art macro photograph by Inna Etuvgi, transforming a single dewdrop and spiderweb strand into a dreamful vision — a balloon rising through a sea of sparkling clouds. Shot in the forests of Sweden, this image blends poetic surrealism with the quiet magic of the early morning.

A visual metaphor for escapism and inner journeys, the work belongs to Inna’s "Wonderland Under Our Feet" series — a celebration of the hidden fairy tales nestled within the smallest corners of the natural world. Inspired by her experience with aphantasia (inability to visualise), the artist captures fragile dreamlike visions through her lens.

This artwork speaks to those seeking calm, inspiration, and a gentle reminder that wonder can be found in the tiniest things. Printed on museum-quality paper in a limited edition, signed and numbered by the artist, "Above the Clouds" is perfect for collectors of macro photography, poetic fine art, and surreal nature-inspired decor.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Inna Etuvgi is a Swedish-Chukchi art photographer whose work explores the delicate balance between nature, humanity, and technology. Growing up in the remote Arctic, where survival depends on sensitivity to nature’s smallest signs, Etuvgi developed a deep respect for the fragile ecosystems she now captures in her art.

Living with Aphantasia—an inability to visualise mental images—Etuvgi turns to nature to reflect her inner landscapes, using her camera and digital art to externalise emotions and sensations. Through her macro photography, she magnifies the intricate details of nature's smallest elements, urging viewers to see their beauty, quiet resilience, and essential role in sustaining ecosystems. Her work highlights our bond with nature and challenges the human-centred worldview, reminding us of the interconnectedness of all life and encouraging a more mindful, compassionate relationship with the natural world.

Beginning her artistic journey in 2020, Etuvgi was internationally recognised as a finalist for the Arte Laguna Prize in 2022 and received a grant from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee in 2023. As art critic Tabish Khan notes, “Her work transports us to other worlds—both real and imaginary, but always in harmony with nature.”
