Abstract Smoke mounted foamex print - lightweight, contemporary and available up to 30in x 20in.
A praying mantis-like smoke formation introduces a unique and characterful focal point, well suited to modern interiors, creative spaces, or minimalist settings. Its abstract nature keeps it versatile, while the recognisable form adds interest and a subtle sense of movement.
Smoke has long fascinated artists and observers for its fluid, ever-changing forms, often appearing to take on familiar shapes for a fleeting moment before dispersing. Its soft edges and layered movement invite interpretation, allowing the viewer to recognise patterns that feel almost alive. This interplay between chance and perception gives smoke imagery a distinctive, imaginative quality.
In this image, the smoke forms a shape that resembles a praying mantis, with an upright posture suggested by a narrow central line and angled extensions that echo folded forelegs. The upper wisps hint at a head-like structure, while the lower curls taper into a flowing base. Set against a deep black background, the pale tones and fine detail stand out clearly, with subtle variations in density adding depth and definition.
Enjoy a premium photographic print with three paper options, each designed to suit different lighting conditions and artistic preferences:
Each print is mounted onto black, 3mm Foamex - an ultra-durable, moisture-resistant PVC substrate that remains lightweight yet rigid. Perfect for displaying on an easel or mounting with the included Velcro strips, without the need for framing.
Supplied without a border unless otherwise specified.
Optional lamination is available in satin or gloss to match your selected paper, providing extra protection against moisture and handling. However, lamination is not recommended for Fine Art Matt paper, as it will obscure its authentic texture.

Fantastic artwork, great service, from ordering to delivery
Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you.
Brilliant! My print is beautiful. I initially ordered the wrong product due to my own error but Carol was so supportive and helpful I cannot recommend her/this company enough.
Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
Brilliant experience and service, we have the Highland Cow framed print, my other half being a lover of cattle and cows and it looks incredible on our picture wall! Thanks Again!!
