Rose Sanderson
Rose’s work is greatly influenced by things that are generally disregarded in the world around her. She explores the fields of natural history, entomology, anatomy to find strange objects and creatures. Where some may see ugliness, be disgusted or think a thing distasteful, Rose finds beauty and intrigue. Her paintings aim to invite people to explore beyond their first impressions and delve deeper into the heart of nature.
Rose’s delicate paintings and drawings upon recycled materials and old book covers relate to the subject as part of a story within the wider world into which it is born. Anatomy has always been an influential source of inspiration, seeing beauty in nature and creation in all its glory. Art and Science go hand in hand, a fascinating and intriguing part of our existence, of which Rose aims to explore in detail.
