Holly Curcio is an artist from Massachusetts who explores the narrative art form through ceramic sculptures and comics. She holds a BFA in ceramics from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth (1996) and an MFA in ceramics from Arizona State University (2007). She developed her artwork at several artist residencies including: Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts, Mendocino Art Center, Anderson Ranch Art Center, Carbondale Clay Center and Red Lodge Art Center. She returned to her home state of Massachusetts in 2011 to do a residency at Mudflat Studio in Somerville, where she currently maintains her studio. Returning to the Boston area also reignited an interest in comics making, delving deeper into the narrative art form and telling stories about life experiences. In 2021 she completed the Sequential Artist Workshop Comics Certificate Program. She currently works as an art restorer of objects by day, balancing her time between sketching comics and sculpting clay.
