Ginny Wallace-Curry is a native of Cleveland, Ohio and comes from a family of artists. She moved to Santa Fe in 2011 after retiring from a career as a lawyer and labor arbitrator. In retirement, she is able to devote more time to her lifelong passion: making art. Over the years, Ginny has taken numerous and diverse classes and workshops across the country and in Italy. She works in many media: ceramics, collage, printmaking, encaustic, painting, drawing, and book arts.
Across all media, her work searches for the magic and mystery in the past and present worlds. She has carved ancient symbols, real and imagined, into clay. Her collages and encaustic paintings combine the ephemera of life, from magazines, books, nature, and found objects, to tell a story or create interesting juxtaposition of images and patterns. In all media, texture heavily inspires Ginny’s work.
