"For the dead and the living, we must bear witness." --Elie Wiesel
Everyday Icons: Rose B. Simpson
Rose Simpson's sculpture work stems from moments of observation and connections to the past, emphasizing the processes of making and becoming in which we discover new ways of being and of healing. Each of her clay sculptures is embedded with fingerprints and other evidence of the artist's hand, leaving traces of the act of making that produced the work. "I'm trying to reveal our deep truth," says Simpson, "and that deep truth is process. There is something so important about witnessing. Anything can be a witness."
