The wind was soft that evening on Dyrhólaey — a windswept headland on Iceland’s southern coast. The scent of salt hung in the air, and the sea murmured below the cliffs. Above it all stood the lighthouse — white against the brooding sky, its red crown glowing faintly in the fading light.

I remember the stillness, the way the air seemed to hold its breath. There was something deeply human in that solitary tower — a quiet strength, a sense of watching and waiting.

To me, this lighthouse isn’t just a landmark; it’s a reminder of presence — of standing firm when the world around you moves and changes.

Collectible art isn’t about rarity alone. It’s about permanence of feeling. I craft each piece to hold that feeling intact — the calm, the solitude, the quiet awe of the landscape. Decades from now, it should still carry that same emotion, untouched by time.

What draws me back to Iceland isn’t just its beauty, but its honesty — the way it strips everything down to light, space, and breath. My artworks, including those in Assouline’s Iceland Epic, are born from that honesty and carried forward by collectors who feel the same pull toward stillness.

Meet The Artist

All artworks are created by me — Adam Biernat, an award-winning fine art photographer. I’ve spent the last decade chasing stillness across Iceland’s most remote corners.

My work has appeared on the covers of Iceland’s leading magazines (ex. Í boði náttúrunnar, Fæða/Food), on music album covers, and in award-winning exhibitions.

This year, two of my photographs will be published by Assouline in Iceland Epic — a globally renowned collector’s book.

Authentic. Hand-Signed. Collectible.

Each artwork is personally signed by me, Adam Biernat, and comes with a certificate of authenticity — a true collectible for discerning collectors.

The signature affirms that the piece was approved by the artist himself and meets the highest archival and artistic standards.

Museum-Level Detail & Depth

Each piece is printed on archival Hahnemühle Photo Rag — a luxurious, thick, 100% cotton matte paper, prized by galleries and collectors for its softly textured surface and museum-level depth.

Combined with archival 12-color Canon Lucia Pro inks, it captures breathtaking sharpness, rich tones, and natural color that brings the scene to life — whether it's a misty Icelandic fjord or a windswept coastal plain.

The result? Museum-level clarity, subtle gradations, and a sense of presence so real you’ll want to step into the frame.

Framed to Perfection in L.A.

Each piece is custom-framed to order in Los Angeles using solid wood, framing-grade acrylic, and expert craftsmanship — no shortcuts, no veneers.

Your artwork arrives ready to hang, with mounting hardware included and every detail professionally handled.

Sturdy & Eco-Friendly Packaging

Your artwork will arrive in perfect condition, protected by secure, custom packaging designed for fine art. Each piece is expertly packed, fully insured, and handled with great care.

I’ve shipped over 2,000 artworks — and in all that time, damage has been virtually nonexistent. But if anything ever arrives in less than perfect condition, I’ll make it right — personally.

The packaging is eco-friendly too. I care deeply about our fragile planet — and I want the landscapes I photograph to remain as wild and pristine as they are today. Nearly all of my materials are plastic-free and fully recyclable.

FRAMING GUIDE

Fine Art Deserves Better Than Store-Bought Frames

Handcrafted in Los Angeles

Each frame is custom-built by hand to ensure a flawless, museum-quality finish — crafted in Los Angeles by exceptionally skilled artisans. Their obsessive attention to detail guarantees a perfect fit and enduring quality.

No Veneers. Just Solid Wood

Your artwork deserves lasting integrity — that’s why I use only solid walnut, maple, and pine. Unlike veneer or imitation wood, these natural materials ensure your frame will never warp or degrade over time.

Always Flat. Never Buckled

A buckled print can ruin the impact of great art. That’s why each piece is permanently mounted to a rigid board — so it stays flat, clean, and beautifully tensioned, even in large sizes.

No Mat — The Museum-Standard Look

Every piece is framed without a mat — not by accident, but by design. This clean, contemporary approach is the museum standard for large-scale fine art photography.

Instead of a mat, I use custom-made white spacers — a refined detail that gives the artwork space to breathe and keeps all attention on the image. These spacers create an elegant air gap between the artwork and the acrylic, protecting it from sticking, moisture, and mold over time.

The result? A premium, gallery-style presentation that looks timeless, modern, and beautifully intentional — at any size.

Many collectors who were used to traditional matting have told me they love the clean, modern feel of this approach — and now prefer it.

However, if you strongly prefer a traditional mat, I’ll be happy to offer a custom option — just email me at adam@adambiernatstudio.com

Crystal-Clear Acrylic Protection

Enjoy crystal-clear viewing and serious protection. I use thick, framing-grade acrylic that filters 85% of UV light — completely flat and resilient, unlike the flimsy plastic found in mass-market frames.

Sealed Tight. Stays Clean Inside

To preserve your investment long term, a durable dust cover is sealed to the back of every frame — keeping the interior pristine for years to come.

Built-In Hanging Confidence

Each frame comes ready to hang, with premium hardware attached (corner hangers or a cleat for larger works). It’s solid, safe, and designed for effortless display from day one.

“The frame quality blew me away! Solid, sleek, and built to last.” – Peter F.

The story behind this piece

It was late September, and I’d been living for months at Thorvaldseyri — a family farm at the foot of Eyjafjallajökull, where every day began with the scent of soil, sea, and the distant hum of the Atlantic. On clear evenings, when the light turned golden and the air grew still, I often drove toward the coast. The road to Dyrhólaey always felt like a journey into solitude.

That night, the clouds hung low over the ocean, the horizon almost indistinguishable from the sky. The lighthouse appeared out of the mist, standing on its lonely cliff above the black sands — stark, quiet, and unwavering.

There was no wind by then, only the faint echo of waves far below. I stood for a long while before framing the photograph, drawn to the way it seemed to hold the entire coast together — a human mark, small yet steadfast against the immensity of nature.

Iceland often reveals its beauty through contrast — the fragile and the eternal, the handmade and the elemental. In that still moment, the lighthouse became more than a beacon. It felt like a symbol of endurance — of quiet strength amid endless motion.

When I look at this piece now, I remember that silence — the kind that humbles you, and reminds you that even in the wildest landscapes, calm has its own power.
