Amanda Rowan: Ritual
View through Artsy
Working at the intersection between performance and photography, artist Amanda Rowan has created her own visual world of richly styled vignettes. Utilising a mixture of visual iconography, including still life, food advertising, vintage pinups, and religious deities; her unmistakably feminine pieces use a mixture of humour and seduction to explore the strengths and vulnerabilities of sexuality. Beautiful and mystical, her work tells timeless stories of domesticity through surrealist burlesque.
