Divided Persona suits creative studios, music rooms, modern lofts and city apartments where a single piece is meant to carry the wall. It works well above a desk or a long bench and harmonises with raw materials — concrete, blackened metal, oiled oak — or with a quiet, textured counterweight of linen or wool.
Available as a fine art print on heavy archival paper, as a framed edition with shatter-resistant acrylic in oak, walnut or black wood, or as a satin cotton canvas on a wooden frame, ready to hang. Produced and shipped within the EU.
