Julia Rogers
Ramsgate, Kent
My latest series of work is about pure movement. Using a meditative process I work intuitively with large bodily gestures.
MessageI studied art in the late 80's and worked both as an artist and a teacher.
I ran artists studios and organised and curated many exhibitions whilst continuing to exhibit regularly.
I now concentrate fully on my practice which has evolved into 3 distinct areas.
Statement
My areas of focus are;
Drawing and painting for instant emotional and zen like connection.
Sculpting to satisfy a need to use my hands and think in 3 dimensions. When creating with my hands I ruminate and solve personal problems.
Installation is a long slow burn, ideas cannot be forced and so it is like a background programme that gives me the greatest satisfaction. Deeply held beliefs and thoughts linger here and I work with concepts such as creating our own realities, nostalgia, superstition, mortality and fleeting moments of poignancy. These pieces use objects I have collected over the years and hold nostalgic significance.
