Rose Marie Cromwell: “King of Fish”
Rose Marie Cromwell is a photographic and video artist, whose work explores the effects of globalization on human interaction and social politics. She is also interested in the tenuous space between the political and the spiritual.
Her current project, “King of Fish”, chronicles the coming-of-age of a young man, “Pocho”, growing up in Coco Solo, Panama. Set against a legacy of US military presence, Pocho’s story references a broader history of Coco Solo as a US military base, and the lasting impacts of neocolonialism and globalization on a marginalized community. In progress since 2008, Cromwell is currently editing the project to publish as a photobook.
