This is my ever growing selection of nature prints, or perhaps better still, earth art. My love of nature has birthed a deep commitment to nurturing this place we call home and ensuring our earth’s wellbeing and I am so grateful that you’re here!
In my work I seek to create a connection between humans, nature and wellbeing; how our commitment to immersing ourselves in, and caring for, our earth is deeply rooted in our emotional health and sense of self. I want to portray simple, poetic records of our natural environment with the intention to create awareness and inspire us to care for our earth. I hold a belief that every individual can make a difference to the wellbeing of our people and our planet.
My deep connection to nature and my longing to visually document our world are an intrinsic part of me. I grew up being lulled to sleep with the waves pounding against Sumner Beach, New Zealand and walking along little coastal paths dotted with wildflowers. I have always been drawn to snapshots of ‘ordinary, daily nature,’ like shadows organically peppering boulders or wildflowers growing amidst clifftops. Still today nature is part of my daily life - an impromptu burst of sunlight joyfully illuminating my morning coffee, the panacea to a head cold and the classroom for my children.
Prints are available within New Zealand and internationally on matte photographic paper at A4, A3, A2 (from $79) and as greeting cards (from $8.90). Currently available here or in Long Way Home Store, Frances Nation, Coffee Traders and Swoon Store in Christchurch and soon to be at Endemic World in Auckland.
I am committed to close relationships with local printers and printing with the highest awareness of the environment as I can.
With gratitude, Charlotte
