Rosalee Bernabe


ABOUT

Rosalee Bernabe is a visual artist living and working in Brooklyn. She received her BA in Art History from the University of Georgia in 2012.

Her work pulls from personal archives and family narratives, weaving together histories of labor, myth, and ritual across México, the Philippines, and the United States. She works primarily with photography, sculpture, and textiles, often engaging an array of craft techniques that speak to larger ideas of memory, place, materiality, and experimentation.

She has recently exhibited in Berlin Feminist Film Week; Esto es Para Esto in Monterrey, México; Beauty Standards at Junior High, Los Angeles; and Trabaj/ho at the Carnegie Art Museum Studio Gallery in Oxnard.
