Characterised by juxtaposition between wildlife and fashion photography, this incredible original piece forms part of Raphael Mazzucco's introspective collection Grass Roots where the artist delved into his 25 year-old photographic archive to create a series of unforgettable artworks that celebrate and reflect Raphael's respect for Africa and her subjects.
Using locally sourced pigments and spices to enhance the monochromatic grasslands of The Maasari Mara, Raphael's internationally acclaimed photography takes on new life in these artworks with organic and indigenous tones and subjects. This collection also signals Raphael's first major exhibition since 2019 and other crucial moments in his global career including his first trip to Africa in 1999 for an historically wild fashion shoot with Vogue.

Canadian-born artist Raphael Mazzucco's visual narrative captures the human form against a backdrop of startling landscapes that span the continents, from Icelandic glaciers to African wildlife and Vietnamese rice paddies. By layering paint, photography, and hand-lettered text, Raphael takes viewers on a documentary-style journey through geographic and emotional terrains.
His work layers photography with text and natural elements such as flowers and leaves, and Raphael’s pieces spring from lengthy expeditions where he lives and breathes his subjects. Raphael’s working life actually began as a footballer in Canada and England; something which he credits with giving him the drive to become successful in the next stage of his life. After being shot by iconic photographer Bruce Weber for a Calvin Klein campaign, Raphael developed an interest in the art form and left sport behind.
Raphael Mazzucco's new collection of original artwork, Motherland, draws from his own experiences and memories travelling deep into Northern British Columbia last August with his brother. From the lush forests of Yoho National Park to the jagged peaks of Mount Robson, each piece in this collection serves as a love letter to the diverse landscapes of Mazzucco’s native land.
In 1995, we opened our first-ever gallery in Stratford-upon-Avon. With just one goal in mind - to make our art accessible to all - our fledgling company began to spread its roots.
Every piece of art is mounted, glazed or framed by hand, with our bespoke framing service selected by our creative department.
Our foundations are built on a passion for art, and many of our staff (and collectors!) have been with us from the very beginning.
