Artists Statement
Emotions, connection, transformation and authenticity are key drivers behind my fiber art.
It is a testament to the transformative power of life and the human condition.
At the heart of my creations lies a deep inspiration drawn from the ebb and flow of life, encapsulating the essence of the human experience. Each piece is a visual dance, a symphony of vibrant textures, captivating colors, and strong contrasts that take you on a profound journey through the spectrum of emotions.
My commitment to the exploration of the human condition and the potential of self-knowledge is evident in every tuft, every fiber. The result is more than just an artwork; it's an invitation to connect, to resonate with the intricate nuances of our shared experiences.
"Vibrant fiber art created to evoke emotions and inspire connections" is not just a slogan; it's a promise. I go beyond the visual connection, crafting an aesthetic that appeals to multiple senses. The tactile experience of running your fingers over the intricate tufts adds a layer of connection that goes beyond the visual, creating a sensory symphony that resonates on a haptic and emotional level.
Welcome to my world where art transcends the ordinary and becomes a vibrant tapestry of emotions and connections.
My Story
As a reserved, introverted child, art was my silent symphony, echoing volumes without uttering a single word. Apart from dancing, I explored my creativity through various materials and techniques, with a special affinity for sewing and fashion, providing me with a channel to express myself.
Later following my studies in fashion design and years of working in the industry, I made the decision to establish my own fashion brand with a close friend. Yet, it didn't resonate as my own dream; it felt like I was merely a participant in someone else's vision. This disconnection led to mental distress, and I felt trapped in a superficial world that no longer resonated with my evolving values. I questioned where I had lost touch with my true self—where had Christina Anna disappeared?
Feeling lost, I decided to part ways with our business, determined to start anew regardless of what my family, friends, or society might think. In this journey, I rediscovered myself—my creative essence. Art became my outlet, allowing me to express and release my emotions freely.
Through sharing my personal growth and journey, I hope to connect with those who may have experienced similar feelings. Let's build a bridge, create a connection, and share in the journey together.
