Owyn Ruck is an artist and holistic practitioner currently based in the Western Catskills, and originally from Brooklyn, NY. Along with her partner, Damian, she facilitates a space called Succurro — an evolving collaborative creative project. In addition to private practice and teaching, she develops and oversee all creative and educational programs at Succurro which integrate the various therapies she have studied for many years in service of the collective.

Her artistic and therapeutic practices are intimately linked. Working primarily in hand-based processes, she focuses on the slow, curious, humanizing aspects of working with her hands as a way of returning to a natural state of inquiry.
