The “Big Girl" Suite came from a time of personal loss in Rowe’s life. With each female figure, Rowe is reclaiming her own personal empowerment as a woman. She herself is a bold life force. Her themes are often the sacred women. Many of her females are not specific in nature but rather possess the position of the “temenos” or inner sacred space. With her sculptures, Rowe creates containers to hold and announce these beings to the world.
