Christine Koch: Meet the Artist 🎤

Newfoundland-based artist Christine Koch will be Artist in Residence at Sunbury Shores from April 13 – 27, 2024. Koch is a well-known and respected printmaker and painter and her residency will take place in the Print Studio.

Christine’s artistic practice over the past two decades has led her to travel throughout northern Canada and work with geologists in Nunatsiavut and Nunavut, with geographers on the glaciers of the Torngat Mountains (Nunatsiavut), with northern ecologists in the Yukon, and with oceanographers and marine biologists in the Labrador Sea, Baffin Bay, and the Northwest Passage.

The result of her expeditions is a collection of images based on the remote and dramatic landscapes she saw, while her artwork portrays the beauty and vulnerability of the environments she explored.

There will be a Meet the Artist with Christine on Saturday, April 27 from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm.
