Laura Curry is an artist, educator, and researcher focusing on environmental and social justice through a feminist, queer perspective.

Curry's practice includes collaboration, critical pedagogy, installation, media production, activism, performance and writing. Curry moves across social and political borders, working predominantly in the U.S. and Mexico.

As an educator, Curry has led critical pedagogy classes in universities, and research institutions in the U.S. and Mexico. Her most recent class at CIESAS Noreste, Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores en Antropologia Social, a public research center for Social Anthropolgy based in Monterrey Mexico, moved the student participants from explorations in theory concerning socially engaged art, and into practice, culminating in a public exhibition and presentation.

Student participants developed new work through guided research where they could contribute to the current discourse in their communities framed as socially engaged art. Student participants came from the fields of architecture, urban design, art, law, anthropology and civil service.

Curry's work has been exhibited at Artes del Tecnológico de Monterrey, Monterrey Mexico; NoAutomatico, Monterrey Mexico; LAB Nuevo Leon, Monterrey Mexico; Yes We Cannibal, Baton Rouge LA; Open Engagement at Queens Museum, Queen NY; DOCUMENTA 13, Kassel Germany; ISEA, Albuquerque NM; Time Mutations, Bauhaus-Universität, Weimar Germany; The Guapamacátaro Center for Art and Ecology, Michoacan Mexico; On the Boards, Seattle WA; Hugo House, Seattle WA; TBA Festival for Portland Institute on Contemporary Art, Portland OR; The Southern Theater, Minneapolis MN, and ODC, San Francisco, through the SCUBA National Touring Network for Dance.
