| Rosie Snell's paintings explore
the relationship between military structures and
their surroundings. In all the works the presence
of the subject is overwhelming, submarines loom
ominously in murky water while helicopters hover
suspended above tree tops, poised to strike. There
is a quiet calm within these scenes, each machine
static but predatory in its environment. The absence
of a human presence within the works gives the
machines an unnerving autonomy.
