Biography
Christine is a collector and lover of beautiful things, reclaimed materials are treasures to her that she deconstructs and reassembles, forming new assemblages, installations, and objects. Christine sees in colour palettes and patterns, a conceptual thinker. Christine is a visual artist and landscape designer, meshing the two fields together. Inspired by creation, ancient and modern architecture, sculpture, interesting fashion designers’ past and present, arts and craft, she cross-pollinates them all. Working across substrates, she prints, dyes, paints, draws, collages, sews, stitches, and digitally manipulates. Christine photographs what captivates her, archiving and utilising the imagery for concepts and collages. Christine forages for leaves, seed pods, and botanica, to draw, identify, press, preserve and imprint. Christine mixes her own natural paints to obtain distinct colour combinations and extract dye from plants to transform the unwanted cloth into the revered. Her deep appreciation for the environment and using sustainable practices, reclaimed materials, botanical dyes, and natural paints are an integral part behind the philosophy of her art practice. Each artwork is handmade with love and care, and entirely unique.
