Ingalora studied Photography in her native country Austria and Canada than continued with classes in Painting, Printmaking and Ceramic in Toronto, Vancouver and San Miguel de Allende.

“I started my artistic career when I was 3 years old. One day when my Artist/Architect grandfather was napping and letting his painting of a female nude dry, I decided to change the colour of the painting to bright green. My grandfather, recognising my talents bought me my first set of water-colours that I used immediately to modify his drawings for the design of a new house. My ideas were not very well received and that is why I never pursued a career in architecture.

For my 6th Birthday I received my very own camera, a Baby Brownie and I have not stopped taking photos since.

I spent most of my teenage and all of my adult years in and around Jazz clubs and Jazz concerts. One of Jazz greatest to make a strong impression on me was John Coltrane and even now the tenor saxophone is my favourite instrument.

I tried to learn to play the tenor sax, but my dog would not stop howling every time I practised.
So, I decided to stick to the Visual Arts.

The focus in my work is colour, texture and diversity. Creativity to me is being open and willing to work in many different media’s, combine media’s and try everything. There is so much to explore and to experience. I always work on several different projects simultaneously. “
