Collidesape

This body of work also considers the beauty, tropical shores, the fragility and invisibility of pollution. This ongoing body of work is an abstract expression of a deep concern for people's seemingly unending addiction to single use plastics. Polythene Waltz was a part of an Art for Social Justice / Artivist exhibit PATHS at the 2024 Venice Biennial, curated by Amy Jackson and SHIM, digitally shown on Artsy.net. It is a collagraph print made of plastics collected form the beach and single use plastic packaging - playing with synthetic plastics palette and a tropical sea shore - a fragile plate, only 5 prints in the editions.

Plythene Waltz

Painting via paraeidolia. Poured inks, and deliberately leaving parts of the canvas white, aiming for delicacy even though the dragon is strong and structural, with creatures living inside his mouth. A strange woman with a rabbit ears headdress comes out of the whiteness, the blankness of forgetting that dream.

The Mouth of Mr Dragon

This was produced by pouring inks at random but with a feeling of peace, allowing to dry then gazing with half closed eyes in semi darkness. When I saw by pareidolia the Rabbit was riding Fish, and I thought that they were friends, and flying through the flowers of water and air to get to their destination

Exmoor

The marks on the canvas in Coastal Connections Triptych were intially created using acrylic and dye,  reflecting the imprints, the patterns and the movement of the sea across the sand and the beautiful strata (caused by extremeweather) of the sedimentary rocks that have been rounded and <br />
 smoothed having been tumbled and polished by the motion of the waves. They were then embellished by using machine and hand embroidery, fabric and beach debris. <br />
This piece can be split - £450 each.

Coastal Connections Triptych

WATER is elemental to mammalian existence, without clean water survival is impossible, Rosie has been making work connected to her environmental concern about pollutants in water for almost 2 decades. Rosie is a keen beach go-er living on the Atlantic coast of North Devon, plastics feature on visits - pockets, bags, filled with little bits of plastic. PLASTIC BEACH is an ongoing body of work - connection between net packaging and light light dancing on the surface of the sea, a development of ideas connected to micro plastic scientific marine research slides. Titled with the names of plastics - polythene, PET, nylon etc and the name of a dance - watching the plastic rubbish on the tide is like watching a waltz or tango or rumba. Abstract images - alarming use of complementary colour - alluring, micro- detail, with a dark tale of the microplastics in our global waters. Rosie believes single use plastics should be banned; human blood samples now often have microplastics in them.
