Sycamore Seed Pods on Lotka Paper

Celebrate the beauty of nature through this unique gyotaku-inspired print of sycamore seed pods. Traditionally used by Japanese fishermen to record their catch, the gyotaku method captures fine detail and texture, here applied to the delicate, winged forms of sycamore seeds. Printed in rich black acrylic using lightfast, permanent ink, the image sits on hand-crafted Indian lotka paper, known for its natural fibres and subtle texture. The paper size measures approximately 64 x 48 cm and has been carefully surface-mounted onto mount board to ensure stability and longevity.

Presented in a recycled frame measuring 89 x 68 cm, this piece balances sustainability with professional craftsmanship. The glazing is framers’ acrylic, chosen for its clarity and durability. Expertly framed to gallery standards, this artwork is ready to hang and enjoy. A striking combination of natural subject matter, traditional technique, and contemporary presentation, it makes a timeless addition to any collection.
