About the artwork

In this wire portrait, you see an owl looking straight at you with intense, large eyes. The tension between the loose black threads and the perfectly accentuated pupils gives the work character and depth. The tangle of lines forms an expressive fur and allows subtle nuances in texture and light to emerge, as if the animal could move at any moment.

The owl's gaze exudes calm, wisdom and a touch of mystery. Perfect for a space where silence, nature and symbolism play a role, such as a study, library or quiet reading corner.

The portrait is composed of many loose black threads, which give the work a playful character. Together, they create a vivid image full of texture and movement. The subject shows subtle densities and the background of handmade paper gives the work a warm, natural base.

This work is part of a series of human portraits as well as a large number of animal portraits including endearing baby animals, which can be found in my shop under 'thread portraits'.

This series grew out of my love for materials with character and story. Handmade paper fascinates me. Every fibre, every irregularity is unique and depends on the origin of the paper. The thin black thread makes it fragile and in some places almost seems to merge into the paper itself. This combination, together with my passion for creating portraits of people and animals, ensures that I have worked on each artwork with great pleasure and dedication. Each portrait is carefully constructed using Artificial Intelligence, with an eye for detail and a deep sense of connection. A unique collaboration between human feeling and digital imagination.
