Alchemy Editions is pleased to present a shimmering new print edition by iconic artist Marquis Lewis (aka Retna), titled Madre.
In this new edition, Lewis overlays his iconic bold and structured text work with free-flowing calligraphy cursive. It reads: “Perdóname madre mía para las offenses de mí vida” which translates to: Forgive me, my mother, for the offenses of my life.
The Artist’s current use of more relaxed brushwork in his original pieces is an evolution of his artmaking practice, and this edition pays homage to Lewis’s ever-expanding oeuvre.
