Safe travels

Generations of cairns are visible across the mountains and along the coast. A cairn is the mountain’s analogue GPS: no batteries, no signal, and no one telling you, “turn when possible.” Since the Viking Age, they have stood to show the way—small piles of stone that grow into impressive structures with a little help from those who pass by.

Cairns were meant to guide travellers through mist and snow in the mountains, and serve as beacons for those at sea. They were often marked with rings or painted colors to make them easy to see and distinguish from one another. Today, we most often recognize them by a red T, but their purpose remains the same: ensuring safe travels.

About the print

• Motif: The motif itself is composed entirely of thousands of tiny ink dots. A slow and time consuming technique known as stippling 

• Printing technique: After being digitised each print is made using giclée printing, a high-quality digital ink technique ideal for artwork

• Edition: The prints are signed and produced in a limited edition of 50. Each print also includes a signed certificate of authenticity.

• Paper: The prints are created on thick, slightly textured, high quality Hahnemühle paper, in 100% cotton.

• Size: The print measures about 21 x 22 cm (8,3" × 8,6"). The motif itself is just below 14x14cm
