Raised in Canterbury, NH, Malinsky moved to NYC where she earned my undergraduate Studio Art degree (2002, NYU) and in 2008 she earned her Masters in Art (2008, NYU and International Center of Photography). After fifteen years in NYC she moved to Spain where she first exhibited her three-dimensional paintings in her solo exhibition, ̈Proper Part of the Whole, ̈ at Galería Victor Saavedra (Barcelona, 2016) with an accompanying catalog of the same name. She has been awarded the Cooper Union School Artist Residency (2016), the Painting Fellowship Award at Vermont Studio Center (2017) and was a Fellow at the Ox-Bow School of Art & Artists ́ Residency in Fall 2019.
