Winged Messengers is a contemplative series featuring New Zealand native birds as symbols of guidance, protection, and quiet communication from the unseen. Touched with gold leaf, each work evokes a moment of connection where the earthly and spiritual gently meet.

The Ruru / Morepork emerges as a guardian of the night, holding wisdom, intuition, and messages that arrive through stillness and darkness.

Edition of 100

A3 (297mm × 420mm) unframed

Handmade cyanotype print on 300gsm Arches 100% cotton paper, finished with hand applied gold leaf detailing.

Each thoughtfully composed cyanotype is created over seven days, beginning with Sophia Jenny's original photography before being transformed into a unique artwork through a handcrafted process that includes the use of natural sunlight.
Subtle variations in colour, finish, and size reflect the handmade nature of each print, with the paper often cut by hand, making every piece unique.

Originally trained in cinematography and photography, Sophia Jenny creates cyanotype artworks inspired by the beauty of the natural world and moments of stillness. Her work is designed to bring a sense of calm, clarity, and quiet reflection to everyday spaces.
