“The discarded object; whether it be a vintage domestic item, a mudlarked find, even a piece of plastic packaging, are all relevant to my creative process: to make comment on mass consumerism within contemporary society. I believe by using discarded ephemera, this loads the artwork with wider questions relating to consumerism, authenticity, status and ownership. The traditional Staffordshire Flatback is my chosen narrative medium to convey this notion.”
Rose works from her studio in east Oxford.
