English by birth, he has lived a “nomadic existence” in such places as Lisbon, Marseille, Johannesburg and New York City, before recently settling in Norfolk, Virginia. Ginks has exhibited in galleries across Europe and in New York, including the Leslie-Lohman Gallery in New York City and most recently with the ArtFlux Organization, also in New York City.
- Chelsey Barnes: “I am always trying to think positive; always carrying yourself negatively affects every aspect of your life. It really is easier to live life being sweet than it is being sour, but then again you’ve got to remember that there is no use being sweet if you’re too prude to take your wrapper off every once in a while. I’m inspired largely by people that are set in situations where they must live a humble life.”
