Reflections | Between The Capes

Hand-signed Silkscreen Limited edition artwork by Rich Simmons.

Inspired by his love of 1950s comic books, Rich Simmons combines classic pop art and modern street art to create artwork which provokes thought and challenges expectations. In ‘Reflections (Between the Capes)’, the artist frames his well-known image of Batman kissing Superman as a reflection in the woman’s glasses. He builds a narrative using the composition of the piece, showing us the scene from her perspective.

Working with bold, primary shades of red, blue and yellow, Simmons crafts an eye-catching work that draws the eye to each detail. From the woman’s tears to her vibrant red lips, we are encouraged to ponder her emotional response to the sight before her.

Simmons names Leonardo da Vinci as one of his biggest influences and employs the Fibonacci spiral in each of his artworks to create perfect balance and harmony in each piece he creates. Combining the bold black lines associated with pop art with the hand-stencilled designs of graffiti, ‘Reflections (Between the Capes)’ introduces street art concepts into the home.

This artwork is a hand-signed silkscreen limited edition on Somerset Satin 410gsm paper by Rich Simmons and it can be purchased in a set of two here.
