A layered, dimensional photo‑sculpture that captures the quiet strength and reflective presence of Danielle Scott. Rose constructs a collage of overlapping photographic panels, placing Scott before her own artwork, Tomas, a textured field of peeling paint, weathered wood, and faded posters that evokes memory, labor, and resilience. The sculptural backdrop becomes an extension of her voice, grounding the portrait in the visual language she inhabits.
 
Scott stands beside a figure holding a heavy chain, both rendered in black and white against the distressed, multicolored surface. The juxtaposition of realism and abstraction creates a sense of history unfolding across layers, as if the past is surfacing through the fragmented panels. The multi‑depth assembly gives the piece movement and weight, echoing the themes of endurance and humanity present in Tomas.
 
Through this collaboration, Rose transforms Scott into both subject and witness, an artist framed by the world she builds, her presence intertwined with the stories embedded in the work behind her.
