artist's bio

born in 1981, rosie is a contemporary artist working almost exclusively on representing the female form. her figures draw reference from archetype’s old and new, from artemis to the modern day super model, each solitary figure, becomes an allegory of her own fantasy.

her screen-prints, using unusual materials including charcoal powder, ash and saw dust, creating unique, hand-finished prints with subtle texture.

her recent cyanotype works enable her to montage objects, with real size photographic negatives. using the uv light from the sun to expose objects directly on the surface, she explores the interplay between painting, collage and photography. emerson describes ‘the technique itself has an element of magic about it, it also a wonderful discovery to be able to combine painting, collage and photography in this way’
