About the Item

Lariat Motel, photograph from Richard Heeps Dream in Colour series. The neon in this classic Americana roadside sign glows in the evening light. It was captured in its original site in Fallon, Nevada. The owners since sold the Lariat Motel and donated the 1950's sign with original neon tubing to the Churchill Arts Council. This artwork is a limited edition of 25 gloss photographic print from negative, dry-mounted to aluminium, presented in a museum board white window mount and a choice of black or white box frame fitted with anti-reflective UV70% glass. Handmade to order. This artwork is available in other sizes and pairs well with Richard Heeps' other artworks you can find in our 1stdibs store. 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. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he makes his master prints. 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.
