Each Collector’s Edition of A New Beginning is handcrafted in Finland by David and his team as a one-of-a-kind artifact—no two are ever the same. Built on a solid substrate, the piece is shaped through an elemental process inspired by the ice itself: fire to etch and open the surface, air to move tone like weather, and layered materials to create an aged, glacial texture that feels unearthed rather than manufactured.
The artwork is printed on museum-quality, heavy cotton textured paper, then mounted into this sculptural foundation. The surface is sealed under a crystal-clear, UV-resistant resin that reads like a ceramic glaze—deep, luminous, and glass-like—preserving the glacial tones and subtle textures that echo the frozen world the piece was born from. Cracks and fractures are intentionally formed and carefully emphasized to mirror the natural breaks of ice.
Every edition is hand-finished, signed, and numbered, and includes a signed Certificate of Authenticity. A discreet NFC tag is embedded into each piece—tap it with your phone to access the full project experience and a digital Certificate of Authenticity.
This limited edition merges fine art with sculptural form—an object that carries the feeling of a first breath long after the original moment on the ice has disappeared.
Each work is hand-signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity, an A4 companion print, and a digital NFC link to a digital certificate and video of the creation of the piece.
Individually numbered in a very limited timed edition:
Available Sizes:
• A3 — Timed Edition
• A2 — Timed Edition
• A1 — Timed Edition
What is a Timed Edition?
A timed edition is available only during a fixed release window. Once the release period ends after the 7 days, the edition is permanently closed and that size will never be printed again. The final edition number is determined solely by how many collectors acquire the work during that time.
Shipping (Collector Editions)
Collector Edition prints are securely packed and shipped via UPS Express.
Because each Collector Edition is made to order and finished by hand in our studio in Finland, please allow up to 5-7 weeks for production and dispatch. Every piece goes through a bespoke process—flame-burning to form cracks, hand-tinted pigment ink work within the fissures, and final finishing—so no two are ever identical.
If you’re working with a specific deadline, email David at popa@davidpopaart.com and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
Returns
Each Limited Edition Collector Print is one-of-one, so we’re unable to accept returns or exchanges.
We’re also unable to make changes or cancellations after 24 hours.
If your artwork arrives in anything other than perfect condition, please contact us and we’ll do our best to repair or replace the piece.
