Valerie Hird’s body of work is a visual compilation of the experiences collected in her trips through the Middle East, Northern Africa, Spain, and Turkey. Hird creates a fascinating topography of her own through the landscapes conquered by her suggestive memories. Her work is organic, evocative, and extremely personal in its flow. Not only the imagery itself, but the history, literature, myths, and traditions from these countries are incorporated in her work. The meditation and investigation of creational myths from all over the world have led her into creating a multi-dimensional cosmology of her own, centered on the creation of the natural world. Valerie Hird graduated with a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and a MFA from Vermont College. Hird has exhibited widely in the United States and abroad. Her work belongs to such public and corporate collections as The Rhode Island School of Design, Providence RI; The Fleming Museum, Burlington VT; The Exxon Corporation, Dallas, TX; and Pfizer Inc.; among others. Born in Massachusetts in 1955, Hird moved to Vermont in 1979, where she currently lives and works.
