BIOGRAPHY
“I am interested in the idea of artist as mad scientist. My drawings offer visual hypotheses to the question: what would happen if the DNA sequence of a plant or mushroom were spliced with that of an animal? These images subvert the traditional genre of botanical illustration by approaching the close study of the natural world through the lens of genetic engineering and mutation gone awry.” –Amy Ross
Ross’ work has been featured in numerous solo and two-person exhibitions, including recent shows at Overtones Gallery, Los Angeles (2009); Transmission Gallery in Richmond, VA (2008); Punch Gallery in Seattle (2008); Rare Device, San Francisco; and Jen Bekman Gallery in New York (2007). Her work is in the collections of the DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park, Fidelity Investments, Wellington Management, Simmons College and the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan. Ross received a Master of Theological Studies at Harvard University and a diploma from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
