Luciano Rosado: the spare room

Sun 24 August 2014 - Fri 19 September 2014

Murray Edwards College

The artwork in this exhibition is inspired by the Water element as a metaphor of concepts such as the passage of time and the permanence/mutability of our memories and feelings. The paintings seek to transmit a sense of depth, movement and transparency in which the process is very important since it is through interconnecting layers of colour with writing that images of atmospheric and contemplative features are created.

Luciana Rosado's drawing is exhibited alongside her painting, for the first time, and is part of a body of work that focuses on self-portraiture as the main subject and that assumes a more immediate and spontaneous approach to artistic creation.

Luciana Rosado holds a Degree in Painting-Fine Arts, University of Lisbon, Portugal and moved to live and work in the UK, in 2010. She has been working as an artist educator and participated in both solo and group shows in Lisbon, since 2000 and, more recently, in Cambridge, UK where she was selected for the AA2A Artistic Residency - Artists Access to Art Colleges - Cambridge School of Art-Anglia Ruskin University, in 2011. The Spare Room is her first solo exhibition in the UK.
