Introducing: Madison Skriver

Introducing new RHODES artist Madison Skriver, and her upcoming collaboration with RHODES EDITIONS

Based in the vibrant city of Portland, Oregon, Madison Skriver is renowned for her bold, hyper-realistic paintings that captivate audiences worldwide. With an unparalleled eye for detail and a knack for storytelling, Skriver's works breathe life into her canvases, inviting viewers into rich, intricate narratives.

 

Since childhood, Skriver’s focus has been on painting; she wants her pieces to be portals into the surreal, showcasing the inherent mysticism of painting. Symbolism, time, and nostalgia are reoccurring themes within her work that are skilfully brought to life through bright, bold colour-palettes and the juxtaposition of flat, graphic elements and stylistic realism.

 

Skriver’s work has been featured in New American Paintings, she’s participated in multiple art fairs including Art Busan in Korea and the UNVT Art Fair in Madrid, and she presented her first gallery solo show (Homebody) in Autumn of 2023 in Spain.

At the heart of our collaboration lies the shared vision of bringing Skriver's captivating art to a wider audience through high-quality prints. Skriver's bold aesthetic and her deep connection to the visual motifs of the American post-war period engages the viewer as they explore this theme of wistful affection. There's a palpable nostalgia in her work, a reverence for an era that continues to influence contemporary art and culture. We aim to capture this essence of Skriver's paintings, whilst ensuring accessibility for our collectors. Each print edition is meticulously crafted to preserve the integrity and vibrancy of Skriver's original pieces, allowing art enthusiasts to bring a piece of her captivating world into their own homes.
