The Inspiration for Sibylline by Robin Rivers

Through The Female Gaze series, I explore cultural memory by reconstructing medieval patriarchal iconography through a feminine lens. Each piece transforms my contemporary photography—often combined with archival materials—into complex narratives that place women in positions of power. By layering the medieval stained glass form with photography shot across various locations in France, I create temporal dialogues that reframe the cultural narrative of women in history.
 
In this piece, I photographed the waters of Fontaine Medici in Paris under many different conditions.  I also photographed statues at Musée de Cluny.  I wanted to reconstruct a classic medieval stained glass window with feminine iconography and the heads of kings floating in the water below her.

The Artist

Robin Rivers is an artist, photographer, and writer who creates from conversations with ancient ponds and old trees, spirits of place and old ones whose lost stories want to be told. As a mixed-media artist, Rivers works with original photography, museum archives, and storytelling to give form to the old ones who speak to her through dreams, deep listening, and walking the land in ancient places. Her practice weaves together mystical guidance and archival research, creating magical pieces that restore powerful lost connections and stories rising up once again. Robin creates all pieces at Studio Albertine in Vancouver, Canada—on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. This includes the territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
