Each piece is created individually to preserve the integrity and presence of the image.

Aperiolis uses two museum-grade photographic surfaces depending on presentation style.

Fuji Crystal Archive DPII

Used for:

  • Unframed Prints
  • Archival Border Frames

This professional photographic paper delivers:

  • Exceptional detail
  • Rich tonal depth
  • Strong color fidelity
  • Smooth semi-lustre finish

Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta

Used exclusively for:

  • Floater Frames

This fine art paper is known for:

  • Extraordinary tonal richness
  • Deep blacks and dimensional contrast
  • Museum-grade archival quality
  • A refined baryta sheen and tactile surface

Unframed prints offer flexibility and simplicity, making them ideal for collectors who prefer custom framing or a more minimal presentation.

Framed works arrive fully finished and ready to hang.

Archival Border Frames create a quieter, more contemplative gallery presentation, while Floater Frames offer a more immersive and sculptural fine art presence.

Each size changes the relationship between the image and the space around it.

  • Small — intimate and subtle, ideal for shelves and close viewing
  • Medium — balanced and versatile for most spaces
  • Large — immersive and architectural
  • XL — commanding and cinematic
  • Exhibition — expansive statement pieces designed to anchor large environments

If you want the work to complement a room, smaller sizes and archival border framing tend to work beautifully.

If you want the piece to define the atmosphere of a space, larger sizes and floater frames create a stronger visual presence.

At this time, prints are not digitally signed on the image itself, preserving a clean and uninterrupted viewing experience. Limited or signed editions may be introduced in the future.

Yes. 5–10% of every purchase supports the Skandere Foundation and its conservation partners, including the African Wildlife Foundation.

Each piece contributes directly to the preservation of the environments in which the work was created.
