Drypoint etching with hand-colouring, 31 x 27cm, edition of 10
Robbie Fife’s paintings and prints are carefully constructed, featuring an intriguing array of subjects including toy-like towers that become rockets, mysterious figures, and sharks. A course in Indian miniature painting, and the architecture of the Spanish landscape have profoundly influenced Robbie’s practice resulting in gently surreal works that are rich in surface pattern and narrative.
This etching features a diminutive silhouetted figure - reminiscent of a jelly baby- from whom a mysterious force seems to emanate. Taking the form of a dotted line (or a trail of minute creatures), this force moves from beneath the ground, into a standing human figure and up through a snail-like tree to meet a hand-painted blue butterfly. Robbie says; these new etchings are about the connectedness of all things, especially via the frequencies and energies we cannot observe with our five senses - but know are all around us.’
