"This female portrait is painted building up layers and textures conveying a feeling of time. She appears to be fading away, being covered in paint, though she still radiates through. Beauty can be perceived as fading over time, this opens up the question, is this true or is beauty from within, being content in yourself and the acceptance of who we are?" 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.
