Bio and Artist CV
Bio
Rita de Cassia Ferreira will be graduating from California State University East Bay in December 2020 with a BA in Studio Arts. She is based in Oakland, CA and nowadays, her artwork is about color and people’s longing for home. In the past, photography was Ferreira’s artistic medium of choice and she still photographs vintage cars whenever possible.
Ferreira is currently creating a series of medium to large canvas paintings depicting cities using unrealistic and eye-pleasing color schemes. Her goal with the project is to show that although cities may appear imposing, they can be cozy and comforting.
