Rochelle Summerfield is an established artist for thirty years and has been making works on paper using a range of drawing, paint and print media. In recent years, the drawings have become towering tree-scaled installations suspended from ceiling to floor. Her practice is deeply influenced by her connections with, and experiences of her local rivers and habitat where she lives.

Rochelle received her Masters and Bachelor (First Class Hons) of Visual Arts from Southern Cross University, Lismore and her work has been acquired by numerous public and private collections, including the Print Council of Australia and State Library of Victoria. Rochelle was awarded overall winner for the innovative photo-digital award at Moreton Bay Region Art Awards, with other notable exhibitions including the curated Water: presence + absence, Windmill Trust Scholarship 20th Anniversary Retrospective and the nationally touring ‘As Far As The Eye Can See’, curated by Rilka Oakley of Blue Mountains Cultural Centre.
