Lisa Rosowsky 1965 —

"Much of my work is centered on my experience as the daughter of a "hidden child" and refugee from the Holocaust. Second-generation themes of repression and loss seem to come up again and again as I sift through memories and stories about a family decimated by the war. I work in a variety of media, but am especially attracted to fabric. The translucency of silk, voile, or gauze, and the images seen both on or through the cloth are for me like the transience of memory, and the fading into history of the few remaining relatives who can speak of these memories."

Born in Boston, Massachusetts, the artist lives and works in Framingham, MA.

Regarding Baker Street (2007): 

"Many of my family members are buried at the Baker Street cemeteries. I wanted to try to capture what I like best about Baker Street, which is this cluster-y, almost shtetl-like quality."  Lisa Rosowsky's 10-foot monochromatic tapestry is a representation of the several historically significant Jewish cemeteries that make up the Baker Street complex.
