From the Series Silence and Light

Drawings in the series Silence and Light reference the sense of isolation created by removing the awareness of reality and the energy produced by the movement of time. Christine draws her inspiration from her experience with the intangible substance that pulsates within an urban environment, contrasted with the spiritual energy in open, meditative spaces.

These drawings represent a moment of pause and contemplation before progressing down uncertain pathways. The information offered is vague, but representational of the ability to remember benign details and delicate interactions over grand gestures. The stagnation represented in the work offers opportunities for evolution and the advancement of ones own awareness. Whether or not the inevitable progression can be altered has yet to be determined.
