Betty Rosado
Betty Rosado is a photographer keenly adept at rendering the unspoken, searching her subjects and illuminating their truths with a keen sense for the intimate and the revealing. She is currently producing a portrait series on artists working in South Florida. What began as a simple project to photograph friends who happen to be artists has expanded into an ambitious seven-year project of recording the seemingly endless ranks of emerging and established Miami artists. The un-cropped, un-manipulated black and white portraits are warm and abstract, honest and visually sophisticated. They are conversations between photographer and artist that encourage self-revelation and steal a glimpse into the subject's spirit. By stripping her subjects of their context and personal effects, she brings them together as one artistic community, a stunning collective defining a new, edgier, more sophisticated Miami. Betty Rosado studied photography at New York City's School of Visual Arts and began her career in New York as a stylist and fashion photographer.
