Rodi’s work is born of an intimate communion with the Wild and recorded through narrative abstract paintings. She conjures immersive and imaginary places through line-song, color tension, and mythological mirrors. Her paintings are autobiographical manuscripts that document scavenging for clarity and peace while seeking the primal, the natural, and the equilibrium provided by the sublime. Whether on foot or on canvas, painting is her medium to traverse and summit the metaphysical, cresting both the real and the imagined. Rodi’s background as an architect plays a central role in the research and conceptualization of her work as well the application and mark-making of mediums. Distilling the essence of her multi-dimensional communion with the Wild and collapsing it onto a two-dimensional surface drives her work formally and experientially.
