Hyper Gold

Hyper Gold: A debut solo exhibition by Rosie Woods, renowned Street artist and mural maker. Merging traditional painting with cutting-edge technology. 

The golden world of Rosie Woods, where serene figures are draped in metallic fabric, abstract forms float weightlessly, and Still life compositions have an ethereal presence. After a decade painting large-scale murals world-wide for leading brands and institutions, this exhibition brings her signature dreamlike aesthetic into the intimate gallery setting marking a new milestone in her career—her first cohesive gallery collection.

This exhibition arrives at a pivotal moment in Contemporary art, as technology increasingly reshapes how we create and experience it. From AI-generated visuals to large-scale digital installations, we are witnessing a transformation in artistic practice. 

“As an artist, I feel lucky to have spent the last decade fully immersed in the global Street art movement. Now, I’m excited to push my work further by exploring what contemporary technology can offer the art world” - Rosie Woods 

By merging traditional painting techniques with cutting-edge digital processes, Woods’ work embodies this evolution, offering a visual meditation on how technology can alter our perception and the way we experience the world. Each painting begins with 3D software, allowing Woods to craft highly detailed, hyper-realistic digital models before carefully translating them into paint. This blend of advanced technology and the classical traditions and iconography of Surrealism or the ‘Still life’ creates works that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. The result is a collection of paintings that is alluring, glowing with a golden seduction and futuristic. 

The exhibition also features digital animations that extend the paintings beyond the canvas, offering a multi-dimensional experience Rosie has spent the last decade creating captivating large-scale murals across the globe. Most recently, Meta commissioned her to paint an augmented reality mural at their headquarters in Silicon Valley. In 2023, Rosie was recognised as one of 50 essential contemporary artists in Diego Lopez's publication, 'Street Art by Women.' 

The content of Rosie’s art seamlessly blends vibrant, hyper-realistic textures with ethereal three-dimensional forms. She challenges the conventional boundaries of realism and abstraction and invites viewers on a journey beyond the tangible world. At the core of her creative process is the fusion of art and technology, utilising 3D modelling to propel her work into uncharted realms that resonate with the urban and contemporary art spirit. Raised in London, Rosie now spends her time between Australia and the UK.
