MEG ROSSETTI MFA 2020Painting

A good artist is able to successfully create and implement a visual language that is uniquely their own. Moving forward I would like to develop my own visual language that doesn’t necessarily require writing to understand. I’m still interested in exploring ideas of transformation and sexual acceptance but preferably in a less combative way than my previous paintings. Subtle observations often tend to be more welcoming and readily accepted than harsh societal critiques. I never intended on being a very political artist, but I think my experience of being a woman growing up in the South led me in that direction. While my work will most likely remain very feminine, I want to explore compositions abstractly using the body as a starting point.
