About the Artist: Christina Hollering is an interdisciplinary studio artist living and working in Indianapolis. She recently received her MFA in painting and drawing from Herron School of Art and Design, where she also teaches. Her work has been continuously exhibited throughout the U.S. since 2008 and recently in Mornington, Australia. Growing up in a military family that moved every three years gave her a deeper appreciation of each location’s native fauna and flora, as well as the landscapes they inhabited. Christina utilizes layered cut-paper collages to illustrate the impact of non-sustainable land conversion and habitat loss, focusing specifically on ecosystems within American suburban developments. Her goal is to remind us that our home landscapes are mini-ecosystems essential to achieving good global environmental health.
