Introducing Artist Virginia Folkestad




The Sandra Phillips Gallery is honored to add Virginia Folkestad to our acclaimed stable of artists.    She  is truly one of Colorado’s most inventive and provocative sculptural installation artists, creating visually engaging experiences of object and material.  Her work appeals to both emotional and intellectual sensibilities often exploring the intersections of culture and nature.  She created the playful viewer-activated light installation “Current Cubed (Current3)” commissioned for the historic pedestrian Manny’s Bridge in LoDo 14th and Wynkoop, one of Denver’s most popular evening attractions, embracing the present and past history of LoDo.
