Career

Rogers' work is characterized by its engagement with personal and cultural trauma. [7] She first gained attention with her works that utilize characters from her childhood. [1] [8] [9]

One of Rogers' projects, 'Columbine Library,' consists of several multimedia installations, including 'Mandy’s Piano Solo in Columbine Cafeteria.' This installation features piano covers of several Elliott Smith songs [10] [11] This project delves into the themes of grief and remembrance, using the backdrop of the Columbine High School shooting to explore broader societal traumas. [12] [13] [14]

In addition to "Columbine Library," [15] Rogers also gained acclaim for her "Kind Kingdom" [16] exhibition held at Kunsrhaus Bregenz, [17] exploring themes of isolation and community through installation [18] and sculptural works. Her other exhibitions include solo shows at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, [19] where her series "Brig Und Ladder" [20] was featured. [21] Rogers has participated in numerous group exhibitions where she blended digital technology with traditional artistic elements. [22]
