About the Artist
Chris has exhibited her work both domestically and abroad in solo, two-person and group shows.
With work inspired by nature, indigenous cultures and spiritual pursuits, she has a great appreciation of the created world, and often incorporates natural elements such as feathers, leaves, twigs—things that have known life—into the work. She feels that such scavenged treasures as well as discarded bits that have a history can imbue her work with a certain power.
She is interested in traditional customs and symbols, especially the broad implications of circles. Within a composition, such elements create a dialogue, first with one another and then with the viewer. She enjoys facilitating the conversation.
She has a degree in Studio Art from Skidmore College and an M.F.A. from George Washington University. She is a Professor Emerita of Marymount University. She became a Touchstone member in 2021 and was formerly associated with Viridian Artists Gallery in Chelsea NYC.
