Kristina Chan

Kristina Chan is a Chinese-Candian artist, born in 1991 in Vancouver and lives and works in London. Kristina works between printmaking, photography and public installation. Her practice utilises narrative and site specificity to evoke a felt history and sense of place. Inspired by post-impressionism, Japanese prints, and contemporary photography, her work explores the boundaries between individual and collective memory, and how these colliding narratives can affect our interpretation of space.

 

Chan graduated from the Royal College of Art (MA Print) in 2016. She received her BFA from Parsons The New School in both Paris & New York. She has exhibited at institutions such as the Musee du Louvre, Tate Modern & the Royal Academy (London). In 2022 she was awarded the Ingram Prize and a solo exhibition at the Lightbox Museum (UK). 

 

Further exhibitions include Oseana Kunst og Kultursenter Bergen (2018), Museum für Moderne Kunst Bremen, Mindepartementet Museum of Art and Photography Stockholm, Hellingkreuzer HOF Venna (all 2016), Hancock Gallery (2021, 2023) and Litvak Contemporary Tel Aviv, Israel (2019, 2022).
