Victoria Hurst in an oil painter and creative designer whose work focuses on large scale oil paintings, but ventures into other territories that include fashion and curation. A dual degree in science and studio art helped to influence a unique signature style that attempts to not only describe, but also make sense of the world, both seen and unseen, and her own subconscious. Victoria has been showcased both locally and internationally; she recently had her “How Did We Get Here?” series highlighted at Art Vancouver in 2019 and was selected as a highlighted artist for her work shown at Art Spectrum in Miami in 2018. Victoria has been shown in galleries throughout the New York metropolitan area; most notably numerous solo exhibits in Brooklyn and Manhattan. She has also ventured into curation at her own personal studio/exhibit space, Tornadothings, in Bushwick, Brooklyn where she recently curated solo shows for Hudson Valley’s Dylan Walsh “Wooden Blood” and Lebanon’s Yasmina Nysten “Live! From the Crying Room.” Victoria has continued to push herself through collaborations with other artists; most recently, she has worked with Hong Kong’s Reggy Liu on a performance and multimedia piece, “Nirvana,” and continues her work as a selected artist with the mysterious collective known as the Five Fingers, headed by Taos, New Mexico’s surreal artist Everest Hall. Victoria is currently completing her next series, titled “The Rediscovery of Human Consciousness.”
