Evelyn Rosenberg is a New Mexico-based sculptor. After studying art and printmaking in America, Israel, and England, she pioneered the technique known as detonography.

This technique involves sandwiching metal sheets between explosives and a clay mold, to create an intricate, bas-relief sculpture.

Ms. Rosenberg has over 40 pieces of public art in the United States. Her work can be found as far afield as Tanzania, where it is displayed at the Serengeti National Park.

She has been featured on many national news programs and publications including the Smithsonian Magazine, NPR, the Today show, a Nightline special on five outstanding creative Americans, and international programs on BBC, Russian, Japanese and Chinese television.

Recipient of New Mexico's Governor's award for Excellence in the Arts.[1]
