Emerald Landscape experiment 2 Artwork - Limited Edition of 100

Maria Agni is a multidisciplinary creator, trained as a printmaker and master etcher, drawn to the alchemical nature of the process—an intricate dance of transformation that mirrors the forces shaping life itself. Since childhood, she has questioned her mission on this planet, both awed and bewildered by humanity’s peculiar ways. As a small girl, she devised her own quiet rituals, drawing a heart shape on the ground, standing on it, and sending healing energy to others—including the monsters, who needed it even more than the people she saw on TV, seemingly on the receiving end of the monsters' bad behavior. To this day, she believes in the power of the mind, in the artist as creator, and in the act of making as a form of reality-weaving. An obsessive observer, Maria records her perceptions relentlessly through the photographic lens. She finds beauty in the ordinary and celebrates its role in the whole. Her images function as spells, mantras, and meditations—projections that shift and recalibrate the universal balance. Central to all her work is the concept of energy exchange, with the horizon line symbolizing the limitation or expansion of understanding and the circular form mirroring the cyclical nature of dualistic experiences. Maria consciously explores the nature of contrast, the very tension that allows us to perceive our three-dimensional reality. Her recent projects further examine duality—how we engage with it, how we shift it, and ultimately, how we move toward unity once again.
