Genesis

About this artwork

2025, Acrylic Paint on canvas, 100 x 100 cm

Episodes of the Whole - with THK Gallery, Cape Town, 5 June - 24 July 2025

Nests are not merely made; they are assembled through instinct, memory, and fragments of the world around them. Rosselli paints a series of nests using gestural brushstroke and instinctive colour theory. In Genesis, the ochre tones hold the warmth of first breath, the pulse of arrival. A solitary bird appears in the nest—new, raw, and searching.
