Dark Star, 8×8″ Limited Edition Print

The Print

Dark Star by Robin Rivers is available in limited edition. I sign and number each print, and package it just for you. This archival print comes from the original mixed-media collage. I created the original piece using vintage and handmade papers, lace, and matte medium on paper. 

It measures 8×8″ and is printed on a fine art paper with high quality pigment inks. It is acid free, archival Epson Velvet Rag paper that creates stunning matte prints. I will ship large pieces in mailing tubes.  Please note that colors and contrast vary between different monitors.  The colours of the print may not match your monitor’s display exactly. Additionally, copyright of my artwork does not transfer with purchase.

The Inspiration

Dreams are full of the seemingly impossible. But, what if—as contemporary French philosopher Jean Baudrillard contends—dreams are a means of sifting through that which we seek to understand and waking life became the place where we enacted what we discovered while asleep? That’s where these pieces start. 

The Artist

Robin Rivers is a multidisciplinary storyteller, exploring the nature of time through memory, myth, and magic. Her work often includes her original photography, handmade papers, ephemera collected on her travels, and retellings of old stories; and is deeply influenced by her Polish and French roots. 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.
