About the Item
A contemporary collectible (sold at Sothebys) color photograph printed on Baryta paper, 13” x 19" (sheet size), Double Helix by RF is an archival pigment print signed, dated, titled on recto (front of photo) by the artist. Edition of 5. 2- a/p's. Available: Ed 1 of 5.
Double Helix, 2021 by Roberta Fineberg is influenced by abstract painting and explores the concept of seeing infinite possibilities. Appealing to a desire to alternate between the concrete and the abstract, the theme of the eternal feminine, a female swimmer, is repeated to affect a modern mandala: A swimmer moves, floats in aqua-marine waters, seemingly through a kaleidoscopic view. A single image flipped and rotated in 16 quadrants forms a collage on movement, space, time, rhythm, and color.
Ships unframed. Framing options available (please inquire)

Artist's Bio:
As a visual artist, Roberta Fineberg (RF) focuses on the themes of serendipity, inventiveness, the development of ideas and color fields for her mixed media works.
