Stephanie Chefas Projects welcomes viewers into the world of LA-based sculptor Godeleine de Rosamel for her new exhibition, Bouquet Garni. Cultivating a playful and utterly unique aesthetic, de Rosamel's imaginary creatures impart genuine life-like sensibility. Each one represents the culmination of a completely organic process and thereby exhibits its own sense of continuing evolution. Like our planet's own inventive life-forms, her sculptures struggle to adapt and strive for perfection as they take on new and unmistakable characteristics.
With her latest exhibit, Rosamel expands upon her self-realized universe by introducing a biotope of plants and trees. Creating each plant proved as complicated a process as creating their animal counterparts, with a highly distinctive flourish to show for it. A new chapter for the artist, it gives each creature the chance to hide in the forest and eat local foliage and plant-life. Well, the vegetarian creatures, at least.
As if culled from an illustrated book, the artist's creations brim with creative whimsy while nevertheless retaining an air of elegant exactitude. Bursting with life, they draw you into a world of endless imagination and perennial possibility. With the addition of signature plants and trees, a vivid world becomes all the more so. Enter de Rosamel's garden and leave your worries behind.
Godeleine de Rosamel’s Bouquet Garni will be on view at Stephanie Chefas Projects from July 11 - August 4, 2020. Stephanie Chefas Projects is located in Portland, Oregon at 305 SE 3rd Avenue on the second floor of the Urban Row building.
