Sam Weber

Oryx

$120

Gorgeous work from one of my absolute favorite artists Sam Weber. I think this is his first print, it's from an illustration that he did called Oryx for Dellas Graphics, and it looks absolutely fantastic.

"I named this after a character from Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake. Although the figure depicted bears no narrative resemblance to the aforementioned, there is something about the pose and colour that evokes themes within the novel that I found fitting. I’ll do this often, try to conjure the sense of a character I have read or heard about, even if it does not directly relate to the problem at hand. I think part of it is about satisfying certain artistic compulsions, and part of it is about creating something that feels convincing."

Details:

One time edition of 25.
Signed and numbered.
Paper size: 11 x 15.5
Acid free fine art rag paper.

Get it from Sam Weber.
