Nora Curiston is a visual artist living and working in Grand Forks, British Columbia.
A self-proclaimed ‘late bloomer’, she graduated from Vancouver’s Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in 2007 at the age of 55.
Curiston began her schooling at Emily Carr as a largely self-taught painter desiring some hardnosed technical training as well as input from other artists. Once at school she gravitated towards sculpture and installation work and credits artist and instructor Liz Magor as having a major influence on her artistic development.
The little town of Wells, B.C. has also played an important role in Curiston’s career. She has attended the Toni Onley Artist Project three times and each time credits it with a significant resurgence in her career. Although she still loves to paint, her work is now primarily conceptual. She spends her time creating her sometimes difficult and quirky sculptures and outdoor installations.
