The artist.

Fawn Rogers (born in Portland, Oregon) is a Los Angeles-based contemporary artist. Through painting, photography, video, and sculptural installation, Rogers addresses the idea of power as the currency of human nature and the conflict with the natural world. Her aesthetic incorporates realism, conceptualism, and the synthesis of text and image. Interested in social constructionism, her art recognizes a full range of existence, including violence, innocence, and invention. She has shown her paintings, two-channel videos, and conceptual installations in museums and galleries, alongside non-traditional locations on five continents.


"Our current geological era is one giant crime scene and we’re all personally involved. It’s overwhelming at times, human nature in conflict with the natural world, a complex thrill and sorrow. I’m interested in harmony, has it ever existed?"
