ROSEMARY LUCKETT

Mixed Media Collage, Drawings and Sculpture

ARTIST'S STATEMENT

Though my work is composed of many parts, each piece retains its own identity, history and implications—both contributory to and independent of the work as a whole; thus the content of each piece is enriched with multiple layers of meaning.  I adopt a Surrealist attitude by pairing common objects like a fork and a purse in an odd setting.  Then I adjust them until they fall in love and make music in a new way.  By joining familiar imagery in unfamiliar ways, I provides viewers with many entry points into my work and coax the viewer into seeing reality differently.

“Drawing on a base of 20^th century surrealism, Luckett creates haunting and complex mixed media portraits that evoke the histories that inform and anchor our lives.” Nancy Unger
