Description
Additional Info.

Revisiting moments of embarrassment in everyday life, Roper's paintings evoke awkward situations and encounters that otherwise become overlooked. The images are drawn from specific events in familiar environments; the work purposefully make a spectacle of the uncomfortable and exploit the awkwardness endured. In her depictions, Roper draws from personal experience in a self-deprecating manner, observing the uneasiness of the world around.
