The Moons of Saturn is a vision of the human condition in extremis that emerged from the artist’s personal reflections and experiences during the charged atmosphere of pandemic and global sociopolitical upheaval—what Rodick has called “a new age of elemental anxiety. Created in 2021 and pushing forward in the aesthetic directions of 2017’s untitled selves, each work was constructed from vernacular photographs that anchor the final images in time and place while the aesthetic treatment moves them towards an intimate subjectivity. Rodick states: “I offer The Moons of Saturn as a visual disjecta membra of sensation and feeling, memory and pain—immediate and, in the same breath, past.”
