The artist is a healer.
The artist is a thinker.
The artist is a witchdoctor.
The artist is a philosopher.

Multi-disciplinary media Artist / Educator 


Rozita Fogelman is a Russian, American contemporary artist, born in 1964 in Tbilisi, Georgia. In 1975 she immigrated to Israel, and since 1998; she lives and works in Berkeley, CA. 

She studied dance and music in Tbilisi, Georgia; graphic design and sculpture in Jaffa, Tel Aviv at Avni Institute of Art and Design, and in 2011, she pioneered a new multi-disciplinary media art graduate program at California State University East Bay with emphasis on fine art, painting, drawing, graphic and multimedia arts. 

Style of her work is mainly abstract expressionist with emphasis on experimental use of unconventional painting tools and techniques. The work's primary focus is on energy, color with a great attention to texture and surface. Themes of her work explore three elements: body, land and water.
