About the Item
Rebecca Skinner’s “Book Beauty IV” is a 16 x 24 inch metal print of plant life growing on books left to decay in a deserted school. The contemporary color photograph with hues of green and blue is an example of how quickly nature reclaims the abandoned. The print has a satin finish and is infused directly into metal making it waterproof and easy to clean. It is frameless and ready to hang with a wired back. With true vibrant color and amazing detail “Book Beauty IV” makes an excellent addition to your home or office. The artist's signature is located on the back. Edition of 6.
Abandoned buildings serve as the focus of Boston-based Rebecca Skinner’s most recent series of photographs. She seeks to immerse the viewer in the scene, intertwining them and the location in a single narrative of nostalgia and respect for the suspended moment. She portrays these facilities not only as preserved instances of a forgotten time, but as the summation of the place’s history and beauty. Skinner studied at the Rhode Island School of Design, RI. BostonVoyager and Upworthy are just a few publications that have featured her widely shown work.

Rebecca Skinner
Rebecca Skinner photographs abandoned spaces throughout the United States. She is a modern-day urban explorer seeking unique neglected structures and desolate places. Her subject matter ranges from large, cavernous spaces to minute details such as peeling paint and rust. Her locations are often dangerous to photograph in, whether because of rotten floors, falling plaster or asbestos (requiring a respirator), so she never goes alone. Skinner brings to her work a strong ethic of leaving a location exactly as found. She does not stage her photographs—there is a story there to be told and she does not alter it. She uses natural light and a tripod for the images. Texture, color and light all play important parts in her image making. Skinner is a core artist member of Fountain Street Gallery in Boston and a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design. Artscope and Upworthy are among the publications that have featured her work.
