Christina Oiticica
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1951.
Since 2002, Christina intervenes directly in nature, earth, "foster mother", a symbol of femininity and fertility, gradually incorporating organic elements in her paintings, such as the leaves that promptly invite themselves to the act of creation; reflecting a particular moment, fruitful, full of singular energy, making the connection between the plastic and the organic materials. Christina, is an artist-archaeologist, who thru a similar method and technique of an archaeologist, unearthis questions, digging, in search of her paintings. She has undergone the test of time and presents her works in another time, the actual time. The artist’s pieces have real traces of a singular experience, bearing the scars of a certain duration, context, an atmosphere. They are an invitation to a pictorial contemplation of another registry, that of marks of experiences obtained by the artist, as an invitation to share the artistic world of Christina and her relationship with the world.
