Multimedia artist Rosśa Crean (they/them) is an empath, psychic intuitive, Reiki Master Teacher, healer, and certified trauma-informed specialist and life coach. In their artistic work, Rosśa specializes in what they call "liminal abstract" works and "surreal realism." Crean has chromesthesia, a type of synesthesia where the brain translates sound into colors, and considers their chromesthesia to be a tool that puts them in a liminal space between mind and body. As a multimedia artist, Rosśa uses mediums that range from acrylics and oil on canvas to digital painting and illustration. Through their design company, Rosśa's [ROH-shuh] work has been part of art installations and exhibitions throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. Crean has done development work with MoMA, and has been a resident artist at the International Museum of Surgical Science, Illinois State University, and Loyola University Museum of Art. A staunch advocate for queer and gender equality, Rosśa founded the "Rosśa Crean Presents" performance series in Chicago, Illinois, which showcases emerging BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ composers and performers.
