Potato Bloom. Hidden Royalty
Fine art photography print
Image size 59 x 38,5 cm


Inna Etuvgi’s “Potato Bloom. Hidden Royalty” is a fine art macro photograph that celebrates the quiet grace of potato blossoms — flowers from the most utilitarian of plants.

Often overlooked, these delicate blooms, dressed in white and crowned with bright orange stamens, reveal a dignified elegance and natural refinement.

Captured in perfect light and mirrored on a shimmering surface, this image becomes a tribute to hidden beauty and the silent poetry of everyday life.

“At school we were told that potatoes were first brought to Russia as ornamental plants, and only later eaten as food. Growing up in Chukotka, I had never seen how potatoes grow — but that story stayed with me. This photo is its continuation: a meditation on utility and royalty, on what feeds us — not just in body, but in wonder.”
— Inna Etuvgi

A contemplative piece for collectors drawn to botanical photography, visual metaphor, and the elegance of still moments.

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.”
