Donna Rogers
The Artist
Donna makes shimmering colourscapes that reflect the colours she sees in her head. In her everyday life these colours are intruders, affecting her vision and constantly threatening seizure. She speaks passionately about her desire to be rid of them and the never-ending search for answers that the doctors never seem to have. It seems like a contradiction that she would want to commit these visual mirages to paper, but it seems to help. They can sometimes be painful to look at, giving the viewer a small insight into Donna’s world.
