Robin Speijer is known for her depiction of forms of fabrics on canvas, with the emphasis on their naturally-occurring folds and changing tones with the reflection of light. Speijer investigates a piece of fabric with a blue surface in the work Nightflower. However, her genius depiction of the material leaves the door open for other perceptions. Nightflower provokes different emotions of people on the depicted material, color, and spiritual spirit of the work. While the unique color of the works tranquilizes the audience, its deep depiction stimulates the feeling of hesitation.
