Rosaline Gascoigne
Rosaline Gascoigne
Rosalie Gascoigne played a significant role in redefining the Australian environment through her inventive application of found materials, to create a poetic vision of place. Rosalie Gascoigne's persuasively evocative visual depictions of the Australian landscape, unlike most art works, hers depended on the simplicity on human’s emotions and ability to empathies in order to be recognised for its potential. In doing this her artwork is presented in a Postmodern frame as it is displayed outside the mainstream of artwork back in the 1970’s when Feathered fence was constructed. But she has also used her technique to draw in a Subjective frame to enhance the viewers thought process on what is your first impression and what do you see and what emotion is the artist trying to reflect.
The concept of the artist is to challenge the dominated view of what is and what is not value in art, which is often achieved through the use of parody and irony. Rosaline Gascoigne creates extraordinary insulations into visual poetry using discarded materials. Whilst Rosaline Gascoigne works relates to an Australian belief of landscape, Feathered fence may also be defined in a wider perspective of land art and experimental art in the 1970’s. However, in practice Rosaline Gascoigne was constantly aiming on personal breakthroughs, on creating and re-constructing materials identified to distinguishing their properties to the point of being infatuated by the artwork.
While painting has been the dominant art form in this tradition, Gascoigne worked to form a new concept of sculpturing in assemblage and installation. Separated from many previous artists, she was neither concerned nor content in describing the visual reality, picturesque beauty or stories of the Australian landscape. Rosaline Gascoigne’s artworks capture the real meaning of the landscape’s topography, space, vegetation; and the seasonal natural pulses of nature, in compositions that are often surprising
