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.
The magician of its title - a wide, flattened creature who looks almost human - seems to be both attracting and dispersing a magical force, which originates and ends in symbolic spiral forms. As in many of the artist’s recent compositions, the viewer can see what lies hidden beneath the surface of the earth.
Purchased works are usually despatched within three working days.
