Artwork description:

There is something beautiful about the decay. Something ironic about the contrast of the shiny RV life. The RV is this thing which is mobile, here it's been frozen in salt, the manmade object has become one with the earth like a shipwreck. Looking through the windowIt has stillness but movement. There is an element of The Wizard of OZ, when the house is flying in the air. There is something about how the flash has hit it, it has intensified the complimentary colours.

This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print from negative, accompanied by a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity.

Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England, and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world, and his work is now part of many international collections.

Materials used:

photographic Paper, C Print, Silver Gelatin
