Description

This is a fourth print from a series, “Soft Needles.” In it, I wanted to show the calm weight of rest — a badger resting among pine needles, wrapped in their quiet texture. It’s a piece about stillness held in the gentlest light.

I called this series ‘Whispered Woods’, where I explore the quiet presence of life within the forest — moments that often go unseen but are deeply felt. Each piece captures an animal at rest within its own world of shelter and stillness: the fox beneath ash leaves, the badger in pine needles, the hare among maple, the squirrel in oak.

Through linocut, I work with the rhythm of carving and ink to express balance — the pause between movement and silence. The series is a meditation on the small sanctuaries nature creates, and the calm that lingers there when everything simply rests.
