Roxanne Sauriol

Statement:

As a female artist I chose to make women the foreground of my work. Ever since I can remember I have always been deeply troubled and aware of the uneven dynamics of genders, therefor fascinated and concerned by human nature itself. Women’s sense of vulnerability in the face of society and the constant fight for empowerment is the contrast in which I build my narrative. While my own experience as a girl, a woman and the mother of a daughter allows me to stay in touch with multiple aspects of womanhood and raise a question:
Could the way women are treated be a sad reflexion of how we treat earth and life in general; as something that needs to be conquered, dominated and discardable?
I’m indirectly addressing this question through my artistic process as I tend to focus more on the introspective aspect of the experience. I’ve come to believe that unevenness between men and women and the misogynistic culture could be the rotten apple of humanity’s core values.
