About

"My inspiration comes when I am in between thoughts, speeding between destinations, or drifting in daydreams."

For Rossitza Todorova, it's all about the journey. Born in Sofia, Bulgaria, Rossitza Todorova immigrated to the United States as a child. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Nevada, Reno in 2005 and her Master of Fine Arts degree in Drawing from the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, School of Art at Arizona State University in 2013. Todorova is currently a full-time Studio Art Instructor at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno, Nevada.

She is a recipient of the 2015 Phoenix Art Museum Contemporary Forum Artist Grant and was a 2013 Squire Patton Boggs Art Fellow. Her work is in catalogs and publications, including the 2013 Lark Crafts publication "500 Artists Books," Volume 2; the 2014 "Studio Visit," Volume 25; the 2016 "Superstition Review-Journal," Issue 18; and the 2019 "Create! Magazine," Issue 14. Rossitza Todorova currently makes artwork out of her studio, located in Reno, Nevada.

“Todorova’s work is an immanently contemporary example of how artifact, artifice and aesthetic experience can collide to create a series of new meanings about so many interpenetrating topologies of contemporary life, and that our ability to think critically about the meaning of place and space is not just set against our immediate desert horizon, but against a much greater landscape…” - Grant Vetter
