Rosie
Isobel (Rosie Campbell-Miller) is interested in how photography can capture a moment in a way that can
never be repeated. Through transforming
these moments with painting, drawing and assemblage, Isobel’s works
evoke a sense of fragmentation, memory and narrative. The division between the external physical
being and the internal self is explored through the artist’s personal
relationships with others. Often the
subjects in Isobel’s images are her intimates; an awareness of time is present,
as through creating these scenes, the artist is attempting to hold on to past
and present relationships with a desire to tie together separate beings. The moment and the personal connection are
memorialized through painting.
Figurative, decorative and abstract elements are combined to create
ambiguous images that reveal something timeless which photography cannot
capture.
