CHRISTINA MEYER-KING:
CONTEMPORARY FLORAL IMPRESSIONISM WITH AN ABSTRACT TWIST
Christina’s soft and energetic palette allows her to create bright yet delicate, almost whimsical patterns of branches, leaves and buds that come to life on her canvases. Recently, Christina has been painting on square canvas and has been exploring the impact of large statement pieces that are bold, textured, and intense in interpretation.

FLORAL IMPRESSIONISM
Neither fully impressionistic nor abstract, Christina’s art can be best described as an aesthetics of colour balance paired with strong textural contrast — a sort of watershed between the two. Painting instinctively with bold and confident brush strokes, she manages to capture ephemeral magic of the flowers while also attempting to tell a story with each of her paintings.

VICTORIAN LANGUAGE
Nearly every sentiment can be expressed by flowers. It’s been said that, ‘‘Flowers are a perfect replica of human life: planting, growth, bloom, withering.’’ The ‘Victorian language’ collection explores ‘flora symbolica’ — the clandestine alphabet of floral emblems.

SONGS OF THE WIND
In this rare for her collection (departing from botanical subject) Christina celebrates the landscape: a meditation on the land, listening to the wind, admiring the colour symphony of the trees, and gazing up at the skies. Delicate layers of time, memories, and stories are all wrapped up in the poetical and ever-so-green English countryside.

SEA & STARS
Christina's latest semi-abstract collection features a muted, almost somber palette and a rather cryptic artistic language. ‘Sea & Stars’ is all about large statement pieces and attempts to interpret the relationship between dark and light, sea and sky, reminding us that stars and flowers come in so many different shapes.
