Etching Trails
Artist Statement:
Etching Trails is about being mindful of our impact on the environment: The trails we make and the impressions we leave behind.
Christina aims to create art in all moments of life for a better everyday. It’s honouring expression, creating feeling through making and learning through experimentation.
Recently Christina is finding fresh thrills in saving textiles from landfill and creating truly one of a kind, fun as heck, hats, tote bags and anything else the fabrics desire.
As a fresh desert transplant, the flora and fauna have captured attention with their miraculous methods of living through change. Sustainability is fundamental in Christina’s work and the Juniper Tree is a perfect steward. Change and sustainability go hand in hand as the juniper pivots its processes to hold on to life. (Look it up, it’s fascinating!)
The more trails ridden, tracks made and paths taken, the more impressions we make. What have we learned about ourselves, how do our actions affect us and others?
It’s a grand notion, the impressions we leave behind.
