Chérie, limited edition giclee silkscreen print with diamond dust and glosses by contemporary artist Maria Rivans

 

Starring Marlene Dietrich, the darling of Silver Screen Hollywood, ‘Chèrie’ is a heady cocktail of old-school continental glamour and feminine fearlessness. A cigarette rests between Chérie’s crimson lips, as crows and ravens nestle amongst the sparkling diamonds of her exotic headdress. There’s a twinkle in her emerald eye, and the hint of defiance in the arch of her perfectly pencilled brow. Full of dark beauty, the gothic birds – considered sacred and all-knowing in many cultures – symbolise destiny, intelligence, mystery, mischief – and Chèrie’s unflinching spirit.

 

Edition of 75

 

Size: 80cm (h) x 60cm (w)

Maria Rivans

Maria Rivans is a contemporary British artist, known for her scrapbook-style collage aesthetic.  Maria studied 3D design at the University of Brighton and started her career as a jewellery designer. A mash-up of Surrealism meets Pop-Art, Rivans’s work re-appropriates vintage ephemera to create dreamy realms, which transport the viewer into fantastical worlds of the imaginary.  Each piece suffused with vivid colour, arresting imagery, intricate detail, and finished with a dusting of subtle humour. The visual artists who have defined Rivans’ work include: Max Ernst; Frida Kahlo; Robert Rauschenberg; Richard Hamilton; David Hockney; Sarah Lucas; and Tracey Emin.  Maria's influences also span music, film and fashion; David Bowie, Vivienne Westwood, Alfred Hitchcock and David Lynch all having a huge impact on her practice.
