Past Exhibitions
Christine Nguyen finds her inspiration in nature and uses scientific processes to create her art. The exhibition pieces for Constellations of the Blue Sun Moon Mountain were created using a photographic process called cyanotype, which is an early 19th century process where prints are exposed to sunlight that become a distinctive blue-toned color. Natural plant materials were also used to create shapes in these pieces.
Christine Nguyen was born and raised in California and currently resides in Denver, Colorado, and also works in Long Beach, California. She is a lover of animals, plants, and nature.
