Roosje van Donselaar
Visual artist Roosje van Donselaar (Haarlem) creates sculptures and installations. She works intuitively with unknown materials, discovering their qualities through tactile exploration. Alongside this process, she researches historical meanings through science, myths and lost civilisations.
Her work combines material and symbolic strength—a symbiosis of knowledge, fiction and heritage, guiding audiences from ancient history to future perspectives.

Series: M.E.G.A. — Make Earth Great Again (Yes, this is propaganda!) Have we forgotten where we came from? Somewhere between the screen and the sofa, we lost touch. Not with each other — with the ground beneath our feet. With the slug that crosses the garden path at night. With the mole that quietly airs the earth. Yes, this is propaganda! For the uninvited guests — the ones we look down upon butnow turned into gold. Not to make them precious — they already are. But to lure you into appreciation. To make you place a slug as a statement piece and realise, somewhere between coffee and contemplation, how gloriously insignificant, wonderfully temporary little beings we all are.
