Mapping the Unseen
2025

For omentejovem, Mapping the Unseen emerged through a process just as elusive as the title suggests. While the result may appear enigmatic, its creation was guided by instinct rather than calculation. At a certain point, the work – and the Stories on Circles collection as a whole – came to a standstill just before it was final for the artist. Too much emphasis had drifted toward conscious control, wanting to achieve a certain level, and something vital then fell out of reach. Only by letting go, by stepping back into moments of unstructured observation and quiet reflection, did the process regain momentum. This piece holds that shift: a subtle record of release and reconnection with the subconscious currents that shape the work beneath the surface.

Stories on Circles is the first-ever collection presented under SILK — a reflection on how limitations can become a source of liberation. Each piece by omentejovem unfolds within the strict boundary of a circle, yet every one tells a different narrative, transcending its fine-line border through emotional depth. In the spirit of works like Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man or Hilma af Klint's spiritual abstractions, the collection embraces a paradox: creativity sparked by constraint rather than hindered by it, treating circles not as closed loops but as generative spaces full of possibility.

Each work is produced as a digital print with mineral pigments on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, 100% cotton archival paper.

Each piece is available in two formats. Regular edition prints come as a limited edition of 3, signed and numbered by the artist and shipped rolled in a protective tube — ready for you to frame your own way. The artist's proofs (A.P.) are the collector's format: signed and numbered, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
