CHRISTINE GLOVER

My practice encompasses photomontage, painting, drawing and it addresses themes of emotionality and spirituality. My feelings are the foundation of all my artwork. Within my art glimpses of my childhood, relationships and events surrounding me are explored. Layers compromise all of my work which enables me to create whimsical and ethereal environments in which I can escape. I firmly believe that we were all born to be creative, by doing so we experience our inner most deep selves.

Art has a profound healing potential which enables me to grow, connect and heal throughout different points of my life. Through my material process I explore a sense of innocence and nostalgia creating pieces that glorify a wholesome childhood that was lost. I achieve this by using vibrant colours, glitter and other materials rendering them as adolescent memorabilia. I employ oneiric imagery inspired by both Dadaism and Surrealism in my work.

My work encompasses repeating patterns, decorative elements specifically on feminine bodies and sometimes text. To me, making art is play.
