Rita Nagy-Osz
has never had any education in the
arts. A biologist by trade, she considers
herself a complete novice when it comes
to visual arts, having only discovered her
passion for it this past year. Nagy-Osz’s
work, novice or not, is striking and fully
evoking. In her interview with InSpades
Magazine, we got a behind the scenes look
at her alluring and captivating artwork.
What is it about the creative process that
you find so compelling?
I create because I need it. It is a form of therapy.
As soon as I had finished my first piece, I knew
that this was it! This was the form of creative
meditation that I had been looking for, a way
to channel emotions and to keep my mind
busy, yet still. It became a daily habit, and very
quickly, a full blown addiction. Sometimes I'm
sitting at a dinner party or in a social circle, and
I can't wait to get home to my lovely dog, put
music on, make a coffee and open Photoshop.
It's the daily ritual I look forward to, a very
experimental experience.
