About the artist

Forest Rogers, daughter of two painters, received an MFA in Costume Design from Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Forest has an eclectic history. She has painted nine-foot angels in a cathedral dome, and sculpted creatures that may dwell in your toybox. Creating education toys, she collaborated with palaeontologists on dinosaur prototypes, and with aquariums on sea life and poison dart frog models.  In recent years she has focused entirely on her own art, exploring mythology, fairy and folktale, and the surreal.

Forest Rogers is the 1st Prize Winner of the Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize Yasha Young Projects Sculpture Awards 2023 and 1st Prize Winner of the Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize Yasha Young Projects Sculpture Awards 2025

Artwork Themes & Subject Matter

Forest Rogers would like to be a toymaker for Psyche.  She approaches myths, tales and magical beings with the intuitive, heart-on-sleeve sincerity of a dreamer or a fool.   She aims to be a storyteller in the dark, a fishing-line in the Styx.  A peephole rubbed through frost-flowers when the Snow Queen breaths on your window. Forest wants to remember how to play. She hopes to offer you tokens from a realm beyond reach of the claws and teeth of this moment in the world.

Press

Forest Rogers’ sculptures have been featured in notable magazine and books including volumes of Spectrum Fantastic Art, Infected By Art, Beautiful Bizarre Magazine, Polymer Journeys, ExtraART, Women of Wonder, and The Art of Creature & Character Design Vol. 3.
