H x 21.75 in. W Limited edition print 2/8 + 1 AP. Photographs of the original artist's drawing intervened with metallic-gold Japanese ink and pencil by the artist. Each edition is unique as it is intervened by the artist. Unframed. “The Family Tree” series is a deep study of the identity and symbolism of one’s roots. The drawings/prints are intervened by the artist with pencil and gold ink, The works incorporate her personal journey to motherhood through delicate imagery of the body and nature, and are all accompanied by handwritten Portuguese poems. These perceptively organic ensembles capture a visible story that transcends a woman’s humanity and her process during childbirth to the evolution of a family, all from the artist’s perspective.  The series reflects the palpable nostalgia of womanhood and the story of her family and her own turmoil of losing a child. Through form and symbolism, this body of work regards unconscious repetition, imitation, and survival. Work is also available framed at an additional cost. All sizes signed, titled, dated, and numbered on artist label verso. All Prices are quoted as "initial price". Please note that prices and availability may change due to current sales. ___________________________ Brazilian-born Visual Artist Magda von Hanau is no stranger to the camera, her successful modeling and television career in Europe set the stage for her true passion for fine art and photography. Magda creates rare visual poems that evoke a sense of magic. Her signature style turns classical into contemporary while playing with both form and architecture. The artist's aesthetic hints to her own personality, bold, colorful and dramatic with unmatched attention to detail. The timeless elegance within each image Magda creates, gives rise to a new kind of powerful visual storytelling.
