"Using the title of a song from an antique book page, ‘Perhaps’ is investigating a life’s path and how a situation or chance can change it, perhaps creating a very different journey. She is caught between layers of paint and a back ground of antique music book papers. This suggests she is floating between her past and possible future." Roo Abrook
Roo Abrook’s painted collages on wooden panels combine
acrylic paints, digital prints, spray paints and gold leaf with striking layers
of history. The works often integrate original Victorian photography and vintage
magazine advertising, reimagined through bold colour and contemporary collage
techniques. This fusion of vintage imagery and modern materials creates a
distinctive artwork that bridges past and present in a unique, collectible
style.
