Art Background/Inspiration:
The five artworks selected for the “Rhythms Of Emotion” group show at the Galleria360 is part of the growing and evolving collection titled Interwoven States.
It represents Rose Cameron’s artistic journey to rediscover and reconnect with her lost past and identity.
Displaced and arriving in the United States at the age of 12 from the Philippines, she was met with strong pressure to forget the life she left behind, deny her identity and build a new one to be accepted and discourage the racial discrimination she encountered in her new country.
Sourcing experiences and memories from her childhood – the rituals, people, folklore, music, language and colors of the Philippines – and unifying the works using abstracted sampaguita flowers (the national flower of the Philippines) and basket weaving (a craft she learned from her mother) – Rose celebrates her past and her “truth.” She weaves these elements together with her passion for contemporary expression and continues the dialogue between her desire to reveal her identity and past, and the conflict to remain obscure and hide her truth.
