Not just art [a statement]
I create black and white abstract drawings and paintings, sometimes adding a single red element as a point of focus, like a clue or an anchor. My work isn’t about perfection or approval. I make what I need to make: visual translations of inner tension, things that don’t sit right with me, and questions sparked by what doesn’t add up. The work carries the emotion and carefully considered titles lock in the concept. I call out what’s broken to disrupt and push for change. The world’s burning, yet too many continue to watch from the sidelines.
The backdrop
Rose Marimon, also known as Rosy Myart, is an Australian visual artist working exclusively in black and white. Through abstract compositions in acrylic, acrylic marker, and gel ink pen, most often on paper, her work reveals what society forgets, hides, or chooses to ignore. With a foundation in graphic design and influenced by the bold energy of the 1980s*, she is unconcerned with perfection and remains true to her vision, indifferent to how it’s perceived. Marimon’s process incorporates interruption and disruption, with every mark guided by persistence and intention. The Rosy Myart Project is her ongoing body of work, an exploration of inner tension and uneasy questions, offering a raw and honest challenge to the status quo.
