Christina Peel (1977)

Christina Peel, born in Lørenskog, Norway, graduated with a Master’s degree in 2004 from the Department of Ceramics at Oslo National Academy of the Arts. Her work is an exploration in materiality and geometry. The use of light, shadow and reflection, the interplay of form and surface, and the inherent aesthetic and textural qualities of the material, are all important aspects of her work. International projects include artist-in-residence engagements in Japan, China and Mali, with subsequent museum exhibitions. She has participated in major biennials in Belgium and China, and group exhibitions in Milan, Munich and Helsinki and on Bornholm.

Collections include: KODE Vestlandske Kunstindustrimuseum, Bergen, Norway, and FuLe International Ceramic Art museums, Xian, China. In Norway, she has had solo exhibitions at Galleri Format and Ram gallery in Oslo and Kraft in Bergen, and several group exhibitions, including exhibitions at Kunstnerforbundet, Astrup Fearnley Museum and Hå gamle Prestegård.
