Innocence and menace meet in a richly coloured scene by Jordi Ribes.

Hot orange bath reimagines Ribes' original oil painting through labour intensive photopolymer etching. The unusual medium allows the capture of both meticulous detail and dense pigment, resulting in a sleek but amply textured print. Uncanny and restricted by the coiled bath, the central figure is surrounded by an undulating, vegetal landscape seemingly ready to swallow them whole.

The edition will launch in three distinct colour palettes, conceived by the artist to be displayed together or singularly.

Framing

Prints can be ordered float-mounted in one of three frame colours — black, white or natural maple wood. Each is fitted with UV plexiglass for protection.

Medium

12-colour photopolymer etching with watercolour pencil detailing on 350gsm Hahnemühle Fine Art paper.

Behind the scenes

A portrait shot from the back of Jordi Ribes in front of one of his paintings

Jordi Ribes3 collaborationsThe imagined world of Jordi Ribes is as eerie as it is seductive. He paints with oil, applying rich pigments in very fine layers. The result is highly polished, almost computerised. Inspired by science fiction and comics, he depicts solitary figures on an adventure. They are often borrowed, but with their faces obscured – like Princess Leia, Pluto and the Michelin Man. Both film and classical art are referenced. His use of chiaroscuro – contrasting light and dark – harks back to the so-called ‘Dutch Golden Age.’ Similarly, The Unknown (2021) reinterprets the famed painting Girl with a Pearl Earring (1665) by Johannes Vermeer. Photographer Jeff Wall is also an influence on Ribe’s detailed, cinematic images. The artist cites Neo Rauch and David Hockney as having an impact on his graphic style.
