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. Transcending mere representation, this artwork is a personal and poetic exploration of emotion, identity and the universal human connection with nature.
Gill invites us to observe an intimately serene moment, as the woman is shown through a lens of vulnerability, liberation and quiet intensity. Gill paints his muse gently gliding through serene blue waters, luxuriating in tranquillity. In a moment of reflection, she closes her eyes and allows the water to carry her. As the dark tendrils of the woman’s hair float around her, they merge with the ripples in the water, blurring the boundary of where she ends and the water begins.
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

The artist
James Francis Gill
When Pop Art exploded in the USA in the 1960s, the art world changed forever. At the forefront of the movement was James Francis Gill, a Texas-born architectural designer who would go on to count Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Indiana, and Andy Warhol amongst his peers. Famously, he stepped away from his celebrity in the early 1970s (although continued painting), but the Pop Art pioneer was rediscovered in the 1990s, and was warmly received by both galleries and private collectors.
