Immigrant Child Drawing

Raisa Nosova received her MFA degree in 2021 from the New York University where she has been an adjunct painting professor. Raisa has been exploring the topics of nostalgia, interruption and destruction in her work. Although known as a painter, Raisa's recent experience of becoming a mother has pushed her to dive off into new disciplines such as glass sculpture and performance art. In her practice she dissects, peels, slices, unveils and reorganizes extreme experiences to help process the impacts. Raisa's murals could be found in Berlin, Milan, New York City, Hoboken and Jersey City, NJ. She is a recipient of the George T. Dorsch Art History Grant, Fannie Kipnes Memorial Award for oil painting, Raquel Rub Sculpture Award and Brussels Capital Film Festival Award for short film. Nosova has completed an Artist Residency at the Berlin Art Institute and at ESKFF in Jersey City, NJ. She has been the highlight artist for the Montclair Art Museum, a guest speaker on Create! Magazine Podcast, and at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Panel discussions include the San Joaquin County Office of Education, Monmouth Museum and the Laurelwood Arboretum. Raisa has shown her work in solo exhibitions at Theodore Art and 80WSE Gallery Manhattan, La Galerie Emeric Hahn, Paris and Gallery 51, Montclair, NJ. She has been written about in Jersey City Times, Milano Pavia News, Prima Milano Ovest, Milked Mag, HobokenGirl, Hudson Reporter, and more. Raisa is the founder of Supernosovas classical drawing and painting program for youth that has been taught at the JCC on the Palisades, Mackay Elementary School in Tenafly, NJ and P.S. 154 in Brooklyn, NY since 2010.
