About
Why this artist matters now
Rose Wylie makes large-scale figurative paintings driven by visual excitement rather than narrative, generating free-wheeling compositions from sources such as photographs of athletes, films, and votive paintings. Working from both memory and life, she paints and draws over sections of canvas in an additive, intuitive process that layers free-associative imagery and handwritten text.
