About
I graduated from Chelsea College of Art in 2015 and grew up in Brentford, West London. I now live and teach in remote Western Australia, working between my home studio and the classroom.
My practice began with an interest in urban displacement and the shifting sense of belonging that cities create. Over time, that has evolved into an ongoing exploration of how identity , in particular female identity, is built and controlled through cultural images, domestic ideals, and historical narratives.
Working with photographed and digitally manipulated found media, I layer fragments of architecture, advertising, and text to create new icons and altars. These collages play with devotion and spectacle, revealing how power, desire, and myth still shape the spaces we inhabit.
I recently stumbled across an old blog I was required to start at Chelsea, feel free to have a peek into my past: https://rosiekeaneart.blogspot.com/
