Revivescence

Product description

Sara Philpott is known for her sensitive handling of line and colour in her neo-Romantic paintings and prints. The rich poetic intensity of her work is in part informed by her surroundings, a strong sense of place, and in part by her own inner visionary sensibilities.

• Origin: Derived from the Latin word reviviscere (meaning "to come to life again"), combining re- ("again") and vivere ("to live").
