Why We're Going Back to the Past – Slow Living and the Value of Tangible Art

We live in a world that never stands still. Our phones vibrate incessantly, social media absorbs us for hours, and even relaxation can sometimes feel rushed. It's no wonder, then, that more and more people yearn for a different pace—for slow living.

The charm of analog habits

Perhaps you recognize this: endlessly scrolling through playlists feels empty, while spinning a vinyl record truly lets you enjoy music. A quick photo with your phone is forgotten within a day, but a film of analog photography takes weeks to develop—and that's what makes it special. Or think of baking your own bread, tending a vegetable garden, or writing a letter.

This return to analogue habits is not just about nostalgia, but about consciously choosing peace and tangibility.

Art as a counterpart to digital life

We see this same movement reflected in art. Online, we're bombarded daily with thousands of fleeting images, but an art print in your home is something lasting. It's a tangible memory, a moment of stillness on your wall.

A work of art you don't swipe away, but that you pause to contemplate every day. That makes a print not only a beautiful decoration, but also an anchor for peace and inspiration in a digital world.

The power of a ritual

Just like putting a needle to a record or tending plants in your garden, collecting art prints can also become a ritual. Each new print you add to your interior brings a sense of attention and care. It's a small break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life – and that's precisely what makes it so valuable.
