About MeRosalind Lawless is a graduate of Gray's School of Art in Aberdeen. The foundation of her work is a sense of place; industrial architecture within the city has been an inspiration to her.

Lawless created 'Metropolis' by distorting photographs and sketches through colour and arrangement, to reveal unusual aspects of ordinary buildings.
