Sophia Rosenthal (b.1996) Lives and works in London
Current MA Fine Art student at City & Guilds London Art School
My works are often prompted by transient moments in films and photographs. Primarily in drawing and painting,
I'm interested in ideas surrounding time and phenomenology. My image-making practice explores themes of home and belonging, conjuring images of dream, memory and the subconscious.
