Learning to be Lost | Exhibition by Rossitza Todorova | October 3rd thru December 31st 2024

The series “Learning to be Lost” is an introspective journey that embraces the vastness of the desert landscape as a metaphor for navigating uncertainty. Drawing inspiration from desert survival strategies and illusory mirages, I seek to evoke a visceral experience of being lost.”

Rossitza Todorova is a professional artist and a Professor of Art at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno, Nevada. Todorova holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, School of Art at Arizona State University, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Nevada, Reno.

As a child, Todorova emigrated from Sofia, Bulgaria, to the Western United States, where her passion for the desert was ignited. A multidisciplinary visual artist, she draws on the influence of the Great Basin and the West’s boom-and-bust built environment. Todorova’s work often uses landscape and geometry, occupying a space between representation and abstraction as she strives to create visual movement.
