Shanee Roe is an artist born in New York in 1996, recently described by Haaretz Newspaper as a “herald of the “New Israeli Expressionism”. In her new paintings and drawings created in cities far away such as Tel Aviv, Leipzig, Zeitz and Užice, Serbia, she continues her meticulous exploration of interpersonal situations and various modes of intimacy in changing urban and peripheral surroundings.
In her new works Roe further explores and expressively depicts power relations ranging from blunt sexuality to intense compassion as she captures and denotes modes of human intimacy from the mundane to the festive.
