About This Work
In *Fontaine-Wolf fleur de nuit 2*, Rebecca extends her Fontaine-Wolf cycle into a nocturnal register, where floral motifs and lupine presence merge into a single, charged emblem. Working with layered mark-making and a controlled, atmospheric palette, the artist builds depth through veils of tone and precisely articulated line, creating a surface that feels both botanical and mythic.

Poised between abstraction and figuration, the work speaks to current conversations around hybridity, feminine archetypes, and the re-enchantment of the natural world in contemporary art.
