Bobbette Rose : Statement

Artist Statement

Inspired by the relationship between the natural world and the human order we try to create from it, I'm drawn to the inherent beauty and spirit revealed in our post-industrial landscapes. There is a delicate balance between the natural forces, human impulse and spiritual mystery. I explore the edges where they meet and what lies beneath the surface, within the context of growth, decay, memory and the passage of time. My work mixes the ancient with the contemporary, finding new meanings in age-old materials and processes using mineral pigments, egg tempera, and beeswax.
