Women in Water | Audrey Hepburn
Hand-signed serigraph on handmade paper limited edition by James Francis Gill.
Pop Art pioneer James Francis Gill explores femininity through the shifting, fluid lens of water in this markedly intimate and expressive series.
Using a luminous palette and layered brushwork, Gill paints with beautifully saturated shades of blue to create reflections and distortions that are both photorealistic and atmospheric. Capturing an intimate close-up of fashion and film icon Audrey Hepburn in a sunlit blue pool, Gill encourages us to consider the star through a lens of vulnerability, liberation and quiet intensity. In a poetic exploration of emotion and identity, Gill uses water as a metaphor for the subconscious, transformation, and the essence of life itself. Each painting is a meditation on presence, intimacy, and the fleeting beauty of human experience.
One of James Francis Gill’s most intimate and expressive series and part of a body of work dating back to the 1960s, Women in Water sees Gill present a series of female figures in a suspended, almost timeless state. Poised at the edge of movement, immersed in water, Gill captures the women between air and depth, hesitation and courage – each composition an encounter. These moments are charged with both physical vitality and emotional resonance. The leap into the water symbolizes transformation, rebirth, and the intensity of fleeting experiences. Gill distils this ephemeral feeling into a visual language that is at once personal, poetic, and universal.
“We humans love the sight of water. The glitter, the soft waves and the deep blue all trigger a feeling of peace and space within us.” – James Francis Gill
