Rose Period III
Lily Formato | 2026
Ink and oil on canvas
36 × 48 in.
Rose Period III is a deeply personal work exploring the artist’s relationship with her mother’s addictions and American religion. Through layered imagery, expressive linework, and an intense visual language, Lily Formato brings together themes of family, belief, struggle, and memory. As the third work in the Rose Period series, the piece continues Formato’s stream-of-consciousness approach to storytelling on canvas.
