Rosana has been an artist since early childhood under the influence of mentors, models and teachers such as Karel Žaluda, Věra Špánová-Boudníková, Jiří Stejskal, David Lloyd, Jaroslav Domiter and Ladislav Maria Wagner. She is a representative of the contemporary posthumanist movement in art in the EU and Great Britain. Her artwork captures human progress and the impact of technical conveniences on our interpersonal relationships. The strongest motivation for its creation is the need to communicate with the audience and share visions of the calculated results of the logical sequence of the development process of humanity. The technique shows a deep study of the old masters mixed with realism and bold strokes of expression. In her handwriting, one can see the necessity to be in motion, but also to take the controlling position of the architect of her world, deeply influenced by life in metropolises. Permanent life abroad since 1991 has offered her a rich development through interactivity with a multicultural society, thanks to which she speaks many languages fluently. She also created sculptures, street art and large-scale murals. This was followed by exhibitions and commissions for art and productions for British television channels such as Channel U, BBC Channel 4 and Lion TV. Thanks to her participation in non-profit projects, she received several awards, e.g. the Presidential Award from the White House, the San Francisco City Council and the Bílovec City Council. She won several prizes for participating in international art competitions in California, Rome and Barcelona. In her spare time, she helps to develop the cultural program by curating/managing art projects and exhibitions in the MonAmi Gallery and also in the Mortiz Gallery at Bílovec Castle, which she founded in 2020. In 2024 she also became a curator of her husband's Gallery De Montfort in the Nový Jičín city center, where they prepare a boutique exposition on 250 sq m in a historical building close to the picturesque arcade square. Rosana is a member of Magnus Gradus (co-founder), Olomouc Union of Visual Artists / Unie výtvarných umělců Olomoucka, Consort “Na jedné lodi. Na jednom břehu”.
