Roseanne Fox- Artist Statement

My artwork exposes the longings of the heart, the cycles of life and death and the creative and destructive forces of nature.

I love to work with found objects;old toys,weathered boxes,scraps of this and pieces of that. I love them not because they are antique or trendy. I love them because they illustrate the wear and tear that happens to all of us from living a full and rich life. The end result is an object that has more character and original beauty because of its unique experiences.

There is also an element of paradox in my artwork. On the one hand there is an awe and respect for
everything as sacred and on the other hand there is a playfulness and irreverence.
