Robert Oxley THE DARK KNIGHTS
Robert Oxley’s recent release is a continuation of his successful collection The Dark Knights . The new instalment entitled Heart of Darkness portrays three of the planet’s deadliest wild cats: a tiger, leopard and snow leopard. Looking for inspiration, Robert explored Jewish and Hindu mythology which is reflected in the titles of these new artworks. His mysterious cats symbolise stealth, foreboding and restrained power. Lurking in the darkness and always ready to pounce, the cats look like they’re about to step out from the canvas.
Robert says: “The cats are stepping into the light and leaving the darkness behind them. It’s a new beginning.” For this collection Robert has moved away from his signature neon palette and used deep purples and blacks, accented with yellows and greens, for a moonlit feel. All of the hand-signed, limited editions have been printed on a 100% cotton canvas with a high-gloss acrylic giclée varnish that gives an incredible depth of colour.
