Rosemarie Lopes
I'm both an artist, and an anthropologist. My practice follows an interdisciplinary approach, with a particular interest in the brain, mind and consciousness. I'm inspired by surrealism, and often my work has a quality of the eccentric. I started exploring ceramics as a medium in 2022. My work merges the ethereal sophistication of our brain with the tactile earthiness of argilla. We are not only what we eat, but all food is 'brain' food. Our Consciousness runs our lives, creating the blueprint of our reality. What keeps me up at night is how the evolution of culture relates to the evolution of consciousness.
