Christy Walsh is a multidisciplinary artist who started her performance career as a child, singing, acting and dancing with her grandmother’s musical theater company, Norfolk Musical Theater. Walsh went on to study dance, which led to a career with regional companies and independent choreographers - all while studying photography and art, graduating from Virginia Commonwealth University. Currently, Walsh works in many media: dance, video, photography, painting, drawing and sculpture and her art is often inspired by philosophy of mind, metaphysics, fiction and poetry. Fascinated by the nature of time, she frequently layers images to suggest co-temporality, as well as to describe the way in which humans perceive events and themselves.
Walsh’s dance and dance-theater works include evening length pieces staged in multiple venues, and site-specific works produced in various places in New York, San Antonio, TX and in Chios, Greece. Her art pieces, photographs, and award-winning films and videos have been presented in galleries and festivals all over the world.
