Iris | Original Linocut Print | Botanical Black & White Artwork Hand-pulled Wall Decor

💜 Iris — Original Hand-Pulled Linocut Print

A guardian of passage. A symbol of hope. A woman standing between earth and the divine, embraced by the ancient flower of the soul. In Greek mythology, Iris was the radiant goddess who guided women's souls to the afterlife, bridging the human world with the heavens. The ancient Greeks planted iris flowers on graves as a gesture of protection and gentle passage.

This original linocut print pays homage to that timeless symbolism. A nude woman stands in a quiet garden, surrounded by blooming irises - flowers of transition, memory, and spiritual renewal. Their elegant forms echo the strength and softness of the feminine figure, creating a serene and contemplative composition. A striking piece for lovers of mythology, botanical art, and soulful feminine imagery.

ABOUT THE PROCESS

Each linocut begins as a hand-drawn design carved into a linoleum block with precision tools. Ink is then applied to the raised surfaces and pressed onto high-quality paper using steady, manual pressure. This slow, tactile method ensures that every print carries its own subtle textures, making each impression a unique work of art.
