Scattered (Original) 8×12″, unframed, $100

The Original

Scattered by Robin Rivers, an original mixed-media collage, is No. 1 in my Dreamscape Series. I created this piece using vintage ephemera, handmade papers, stamps, and matte medium on heavy paper. 

It measures 8×12″.  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

This piece launched the Dreamscape Series. The inspiration comes from The Caul—beings who will emerge as part of a larger Studio Albertine project. As I explored new findings in quantum physics and the possibilities of time as a construction rather than a constant, I began to consider the possibility of higher-level beings who work to better humanity. They live in the ethers, as the spark of inspiration . . . if one is open to them.

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.
