ROSALIE OAKMANPainting, Drawing, Textile. Creative – London / Paris.
Rosalie Oakman’s practice moves across painting, drawing, and textile — always returning to the same questions: what does it mean to inhabit a body? What does the body carry, hold, survive?
Working from life, her large-format figurative paintings and drawings trace the tensions between beauty and decay, tenderness and rupture, the delicate and the raw. Her textile works — made in lace, crochet, hand-tufted yarn — treat cloth as flesh, and flesh as evidence.
Each piece in this shop is more than just an artwork; it’s a fragment of a larger narrative – one that speaks of memory, fragility, and transformation. From evocative paintings to sculptural textiles, my work explores the tensions between beauty and decay, past and present, the delicate and the raw.
Whether you’re drawn to intricate details, bold textures, or pieces that challenge and inspire, I invite you to explore, connect, and find something that speaks to you. Art is a conversation – let’s begin.
