About the Item

Matriarch Dominica, 2019 Edition of 20: 24” x 36” (61 x 91.4 cm) - $6,500 Edition of 15: 31” x 46.5” (78.7 x 118.1 cm) Edition of 10: 40” x 60” (101.6 x 152.4 cm) Edition of 7: 60” x 90” (152.4 × 228.6 cm) "Sperm whales have traversed the deep oceans of our Earth for millions of years. The pods we know today thrive under the guidance of the eldest and wisest female in the group as she ushers her family along ancient waterways to their feeding grounds. I created this work as a tribute to the mothers, grandmothers, and wise women keeping our world turning; women like my lion-hearted partner Cristina Mittermeier pictured above, and my own mother who led our family with warmth and resolve through the long Arctic winters." -Paul Nicklen Paul Nicklen's Biography: Paul Nicklen (Canadian) is a visual artist and marine biologist who has documented both the beauty and the plight of our planet for over 20 years. Paul’s photography informs and connects by creating an emotional bond with wild subjects in extreme conditions. After a 20-year career of photographing for journalistic publications like National Geographic, Paul’s perpetuating dream is to revisit his archives for the true artistic gems and release them to the world. His ongoing journey is to continue photographing intimate, evocative, powerful subject matter to create a thought-provoking body of work. Paul hopes his viewers look into the eyes of the animals in his photographs and fall in love with their vulnerability. In addition to being one of the world’s most renowned nature photographers, Paul is a well-known speaker, TED Talks participant, author, and National Geographic Fellow. In the past two decades, Paul has collaborated with scientists, filmmakers, conservationists, and explorers to create awareness and inspire action for global issues such as climate change. Paul has garnered more than 30 of the highest awards given to any photographer in his field, earning a global following of celebrities, conservationists, and fans.
