BFA '09 Rachel Rossin On Artsy’s List of 30 Emerging Artists to Watch this Spring

Published April 28, 2016

“A self-taught programming wunderkind and early adopter of today’s virtual reality technology, Florida-born Rossin pairs her technical practice with painting—tethering her process to physical reality. In her highly praised fall exhibition at Zieher Smith & Horton, oil paintings mirrored the surreal landscapes seen inside accompanying Oculus Rift headsets (and vice versa); and at NADA New York, her solo booth with Signal Gallery will offer up a new virtual reality installation alongside paintings inspired by screen grabs from inside the VR work—think first-person shooter characters sporting textures plucked from the artist’s childhood plants.” — Artsy Editorial
