COLLAGE ARTIST, CRAFTER AND TEACHER

​Rayana is a collage and paper artist based in Richmond, Virginia.

Her artistic practice is process-based and combines traditional paper-cutting techniques, collage, painting and printmaking. Inspired by forms and patterns in nature, she manipulates hand-cut paper to create dimensional collages that explore the threshold between painting and sculpture.

 

Rayana received her BFA in Art Education from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2020 and is a full-time art educator.
