Imbued with processes of repetition, Christine’s work investigates the nature of obsession as a design practice. The unmaking and remaking of images and objects is central to her design language, as is an interest less in precision and more in accuracy — as in truth.
Before her turn to architecture, Christine’s professional career in film spanned over 10 years as a freelance editor and producer for the New York Philharmonic and for a network of independent filmmakers. Her films have been recognized by international film festivals and nominated for an Independent Spirit Award. Christine earned her M.Arch from Columbia University, where she was the recipient of the Lowenfish Memorial Prize for most outstanding student in the final semester design studio. In addition to her artistic practice, Christine works with clients on commerical and residential projects through her design practice, Means of Egress
