I like tall figures, textures, colors and special effects... all is about emotions.
Christine was born in Toulouse, but lived in several French cities during her childhood, "which gave [her] her curious streak and her taste for novelty". When her parents refused to let her attend an academy of arts, she opted to study for a degree in Economics, which led her to work as an economics teacher in various high schools in the Paris area over a period of seven years. Christine had always been a travel enthusiast and attracted to the creative world, so, in 1997, she decided to redirect her career towards the event industry. This dynamic and passionate artist and entrepreneur is now based in Hong Kong and works from the community and multidisciplinary creative space "Art Bubble", which she inaugurated in April 2018 in the city of Wong Chuk Hang. There, she devotes herself as much to the creation of her works as to the organisation of group classes and exhibitions.
After redirecting her career towards the event industry, in 2006, Christine started an apprenticeship to acquire the skills needed for sculpture. At the time, she was living with her family in Brussels, and spent two years learning about figurative three-dimensional creation alongside contemporary sculptor Annabelle Hyvrier (born in 1971). When Christine left Belgium for Lisbon, she experimented with a traditional technique firmly rooted in Portuguese culture: ceramics. Thus, this artist's fingers transform sandstone or clay into delicate stylized silhouettes and characters, vectors of stories and emotions, right at the point where techniques and cultures meet.
