About the Item
"Left Gatekeeper Ibis" is an etching, aquatint and soap ground aquatint printed from two copper plates in red and blue inks. The print was created and printed on Somerset Satin paper at Manneken Press in an edition of 10. There is a border on all sides of the image. The image size is 21" x 18 3/4" and the sheet size is 28 1/2" x 26". The artist's signature, date, title and edition number are in pencil on the lower margin. "Left Gatekeeper Ibis" is a companion to "Right Gatekeeper Ibis". While the prints are available singly, the artist's intent is for the two prints to be hung side by side with the birds facing one another.
Rhea Edge uses her art to convey an environmental message and a moral message that breaks through words and facts. Her art speaks a truth that is often obscured by manipulative phrasing and partisan politics. She shows us the vulnerabilities of endangered species and their impending extinction. It’s beautiful. It’s disconcerting. It leaves viewers with uncomfortable moral questions.
