ROSEMARY A. LUCKETT

Artist Statement

River of Life Runs Through Me: Tree Collar, Acrylic and mixed media on canvas,

Rosemary Luckett's mixed media drawings, collages, and sculptures reveal a lively interplay between real and surreal expression. Her works are metaphors for American culture and commerce and how they impact the natural world in unintended but negative ways. Each piece is built around a single real or symbolic object or group of items that seem unrelated to each other.  But things are not always what they seem to be.

Rosemary’s work points to the something invisible hiding in something more obviously visible, even ordinary. The fun for her is in trying out unusual combinations of forms and solving the puzzles she presents to herself and us.

A former resident of Prince William County in Virginia, she now lives in Wilmington DE.  Rosemary has over 38 years of studio experience in painting, collage, and sculpting.

Recent solo exhibtions at Touchstone include: Nature Icons (June 2024), Her Garden House (2023), and Landscapes: The Terrain Within (2018).
