Alice Tippit’s Flute, 2024, is an Intaglio and monoprint in an edition of 12 and printed from a copper plate. While the artist works most often in the form of painting, mixed media on paper, and sculpture, Flute carries into print Tippit’s deeply observant and quietly literary sensibility. In 2016, critic Johanna Fateman described Tippit’s compositions as “unsolvable riddles” with a “cool, formal harmony.”

Tippit offers cues of information, and in works on paper the unworked material itself can have formal significance. Here it serves as both candle and wick, containing the darkness illuminated by the flame; yet the undulating form (in gray ink) surrounding the flame can also be read as a figure, deepening the potential readings for the image. The corporal shape, as with the flame motif, is recurrent in Tippit’s work– to which we might reference her earlier painting, Part; or Shriek, a work on paper. Each with its own narrative potential, they embody a radical strangeness that runs current-like through Tippit’s practice.

The candle is symbolic of an individual life, particularly as a reminder of its brevity; its illumination aligned with the pursuit of knowledge. The perceptual trick of the figure-ground relationship in Flute complicates those familiar associations. The image contains the darkness illuminated by the flame but also gives it form, allowing for reflection on the limits of our awareness as well as that which ignites our imagination: a small fire helps us to carry on even as we know that our time is all too brief. Accordingly, for each print in this edition, the flame’s yellow and orange ink is hand applied and unique, giving form to a fire’s flickering quality.

The typical platemark, one of the most defining elements of Intaglio prints, is absent, which aligns Flute to the compositional elegance of Tippit’s paintings. And so we can also think of the uninterrupted shape in Flute as a shield, a form of protection that is itself protected. As Tippit has said, “I like an image that unfurls again and again and again.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.
