Note:  due to the nature of these full bleed, French Navy works, created by hand, the deckled edges will have unique attributes that showcase a raw process.

“South” is a unique work of art by Ola Volo, specifically created as an exclusive limited edition print run, in collaboration with Art Rapture’s publishing house, Rapture Editions. This work is the final release for West, East, North, South. ⁠

South's theme is derived from the vastness of the ocean and universe.  Ola draws inspiration from her travels to the southern seas. The Queen's hair flows like a nautical map with layers reminiscent of oyster shells at the water's edge.

The female figure gazes to the sky in search of guidance from the illuminating stars. 
⁠
This final release showcases Ola Volo's brilliant execution and maturity as she completes this series of highly collectible artwork.⁠
