Roger Thomasson is a visual artist based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. His work explores the intertwining themes of memory, ecology, and belonging. He approaches image-making as an expression of stewardship, as he endeavors to navigate the fuzzy boundaries between loss and preservation.
Working closely with Albuquerque’s desert flora, he often turns his attention to the overlooked and misunderstood. Through studies of light, alchemy, and time, he reflects on the persistence of life and embraces the tenderness that emerges in efforts to preserve, even when the odds tilt against hope.
