Christina has worked in clay for more than nine years and is based in Greenpoint.

She makes functional forms and figurative sculpture that draw on antiquity and spiritual symbols, and teaches hand building with a focus on process and play.

Work

  • A candleholder: a cloud of glossy clustered forms in cream, lavender and brown, a hand reaching out of it holding a lit candle
  • A vase with crumpled, ruffled walls swirled in cobalt, white and amber glaze, on a block of terracotta
  • A wide two-handled cup on a stem, dappled cream and dark brown, on a carved dark block
  • Two pale, ruffled goblets on an open book on a wooden table, one lying on its side
  • A glossy blue-gray sculpture made of clustered rounded forms

Christina teaches wheel throwing and hand building.
