About the Artist

Rose Luardo's work combines elements of fine art production (installation, sculpture, fiber art), costuming, and varied performance practices to achieve immersive interdisciplinary experiences. She creates moments of wholesomeness, shock, whimsy, terror, tenderness, fear, fantasy - a spectrum by which a viewer can be moved. She is up for friendship. Rose is/was part of The New Dreamz, Nulliparous Tits, and Queer Bait - all performance duos. She is also a member of The Incredible Dreamz: a 4-way video and performance group. She was a member of power-pop band Sweetheart with AND she is currently deeply obsessed and still friends with all these folks she got into the creative bed with. Rose’s performance and fine art work have been exhibited at PS1 Moma, PRACTICE Gallery, Space 1026, LUMP Gallery, The Fairmount House, Slow Culture Gallery, Art Basil, The Cannonball Festival, The Philly Fringe, and Elsewhere Museum. 

Here's what the bitch has to say about herself: Shaped by my experiences within the punk and DIY scenes, and in alt-comedy environments, I am invested in bringing my work to the people where they are and challenging the standards of contemporary art and traditional performance containers. I am invested in diffusing the grandiosity and elitism or exclusivity of the art world as an institution and lampooning the idea of the artist as a genius, by simply celebrating the ecstasy of performance.

Drink the bathwater that nourishes your freaky funnybone.
