Being carried away by the mosquitoes | Limited Edition of 10
Ontario's Joke: Giant Mosquito and Man in Playful Artistic Encounter
In the heart of Ontario, Canada, where wilderness is rampant and biodiversity thrives, I captured an unusual sight - a gigantic metal mosquito seeming to abscond with a human figure. This whimsical, yet profound, piece of art is a tongue-in-cheek nod to the local lore of the region's notoriously intense mosquito population.
The sculpture, with its exaggerated features and imposing stature, towers against the backdrop of the Canadian sky. The man in its grasp, though clearly a fictitious predicament, adds an unexpected element of humor to the scene. The black and white tones lend the image a vintage feel, emphasizing the stark contrast between the metal mosquito and its surroundings.
The photograph is printed on 100% Archival Photo Paper with archival inks, turning the captured moment into a museum-grade print. The black and white palette underscores the fine details of the sculpture, the metallic sheen of the mosquito, and the texture of the surrounding environment, all rendered with remarkable precision.
Each photograph, hand-signed on the reverse, assures its authenticity. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and offering a lifetime warranty against fading, the photograph promises enduring aesthetic pleasure. Please note, the print comes unframed, with only the image for sale.
With our commitment to free worldwide delivery, you can now bring home this unusual piece of Ontario's local humor, no matter where you are. Offering a 14-day satisfaction or your money back guarantee, the photograph is a playful yet artistic addition to any space.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
