Christina Zimpel grew up in Perth Western Australia. She now resides in New York and works from her studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

​

Christina’s practice centers around the characters and small observances of her daily life in Brooklyn. Weeds and birds get special treatment. Faces are distilled to a few lines, just enough to relate to. The palette is subversively fluorescent or reduced to black and white. Introversion gets banished by her intense choice of color, the louder the better.
