ROSANNA BISHOP
• MAXIMALIST DESIGNS • CURIOUS NARRATIVES • CONSIDERED CRAFTSMANSHIP. •
Rosanna Bishop is a multidisciplinary Designer, specialising in silk screen-printing, maximalist designs and hand painted commissions.
Working from her studio and print room in Hove, Rosanna uses her signature style to create bespoke designs to be sold as one-off art, fashion and interior pieces.
Rosanna previously worked in luxury fashion houses designing prints and screen printing but returned to study for an MA at The Royal College of Art after receiving a scholarship from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust.
Rosanna has since spent many years collaborating on a freelance basis with a range of high-profile Fashion clients, such as Alexander McQueen, Fiorucci & JW Anderson but is now more frequently working on bespoke commissions for Interior Design.
With a passion for illustrative prints and curious narratives, Rosanna combines traditional processes such as silk screen-printing, hand painting and gold leaf gilding with unexpected materials and concepts to create unique pieces.
Rosanna’s work is playful in its attempts
to draw inspiration from abstract or unexpected subjects, with previous collections discussing death, questioning taboos and celebrating the beauty in decay.
