Rosalina Libertad Cerritos is a Salvadoran-Canadian moving image artist and researcher. Her creative practice-based research revolves around activating and utilizing her cultural, ancestral and historical knowledge at the intersection of emerging digital technologies and art.

In her artistic research and studio practice she explores themes that navigate personal and collective experiences and histories and how these unfold through identity, culture, language, place, memory and intergenerational experiences of trauma, nostalgia, celebration and hope. These themes are expressed as personal allegory and symbolical narrative where digital moving image, sound and sculptural form embody and encompass the subliminal corners of her emotional creativity and imagination. Her practice is multi-dimensional and multi-sensorial. In her work she is exploring and imagining new narratives and new futures through a process and exercise of reconstruction, reconciliation and reconnection to her memories and history.

She holds a BFA in Film Production from the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema at Concordia University, with a focus on Experimental Cinema. She completed an MFA at Emily Carr University of Art and Design, and is currently pursuing a PhD in Media & Design Innovation at Toronto Metropolitan University.

Rosalina is based in Toronto, the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabe, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat Peoples.
