As an award-winning generative physical theatre artist, Christine’s twenty-year performance career revolved around communication and authentic connection.
Beyond language barriers, she relied on the body’s elasticity and multitudes of expression to tell stories. She investigated how myriad movement methods might merge within a dynamic puzzle. The graceful fluidity of a dancer. The weightless precision of an acrobat. The screaming isolation of a Butoh mask. The vulnerable idiocy of a clown. The surprising breath of a puppet. All woven into a new cohesive modality.
Christine styled unique performances and pedagogy in her original works and teaching artistry through a process of inquisitive experimentation and awe. She now applies these dynamic tools to creative writing and Audio Description services. Her playful perspective and physical vocabulary show up in other digital- and paper-bound mediums like photography, adaptation of found materials, and experimental musical compositions. Her multimedia works wiggle the line between profundity and absurdity because she’s mystified by the emotional-corporeal phenomenon of laughter.
