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 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 xÊ·məθkwÉ™y̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and SÉ™lÌ“ÃlwÉ™taÊ”/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
