About

Ryan Baltor (b. 1995, New York City) is a painter and poet based in Eureka, California. She received her undergraduate degree in painting and poetry from Bennington College.

Her oil paintings and works on paper hold forms in states of emergence and dissolution, where what appears never fully stabilizes.

Her work is concerned with ambiguity, vulnerability, and bodily forms of knowing outside fixed narrative.

Alongside her visual practice, she writes poetry that extends her interest in painting and its symbolic and psychological dimensions.
