Description
Moonling by Robin Rivers Limited Edition Prints are a part of the Albertine Series. These are numbered, signed archival prints from the original mixed-media collage. I created this piece using my original photography that has not been digitally altered, acrylic medium and handmade papers. Only six prints of this piece will be made available.
The prints measures 8×8″ and I will ship this piece flat to ensure no creasing occurs. Please note that colours 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 for Moonling by Robin Rivers
Paris, the city of light, romance, wonder. At times, it may seem cliché. But, what of its magic? Its way of drawing one in and reconstructing how we perceive the world? Through the Albertine series, I wanted to explore how memory and time fragment, reconstructing themselves into spaces that live vividly in our experience, even when they are not a faithful representation of the original. Moonling combines images of a woman along with postcard elements and handmade papers. This small sketch explores a vignette written by Albertine in which she tries over and over again to explain why she stays away from Henri as she sits under a full moon just a block away from him in Paris.
The Artist
Robin Rivers is a multidisciplinary storyteller. She explores cultural memory keeping and technologies of circulation—how stories and images travel between people and across generations. Her practice folds writing and original photography into my mixed-media collage process. She examines how documented archives and personal interpretation shape our shared understanding of the past and how preservation itself is shaped by power, privilege, and historical upheaval. 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 xÊ·məθkwÉ™y̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and SÉ™lÌ“ÃlwÉ™taÊ”/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
