Rosso uses portraiture and self-portraiture to explore herself and the world around. By use of metaphors and subtle irony, the artist unveils the strenght and vulnerability of the human condition. Her work is populated by predominantly female characters with a strong sense of physicality who interact with the viewers at various levels of the subconscious. Although not explicitily, racial injustice, gender inequality and environmental issues are often catalysts of the artist's work.

Deeply inspired by classicism and painting mainly in oils, Rosso adopts a version of realism that combines abstract expressionism, mixed media and occasionally collage to create aesthetically engaging content.
