My name is Gardenia Rosario, better known as “Gigi” and I am an artist based in New York city. I am passionate about unconventional materials, textures, and the history behind each.
i am a nester, a collector, and I like to give a new life to previously DISCARDED objects. I am obsses with transformation. It is very important for me to gather materials myself to reference their past, history, and natural form.
Another factor that is very distinctive of my work is the emphasis on the embellishment of women, their head and hair in particular. I have a passion for the female upper body and head pieces with “crown-like” quality and jewelry are empowering to me.
