CHRISTA  

Atlanta based multi-media abstract artist

Christa Collins is a self-taught multi-media artist, sculptor, and musician based in Atlanta, GA.

Primarily focusing on abstract expressionism, she is passionate about creating art that explores the emotional landscape of human nature and how the subconscious mind can abstract reality.

Her work delves into raw emotion and personal reflection, capturing the essence of her inner experiences and feelings.

Christa’s paintings embrace a wabi-sabi aesthetic—finding beauty in imperfection and the transience of life. This philosophy is woven throughout her process, and she is known for her distinct textures, vivid neutrals, and innovative use of mixed media materials.

Through her work, she hopes to foster a silent dialogue that resonates with viewers, encouraging them to engage with the piece and explore their own emotional responses and personal interpretations.

“FORGETTING TO REMEMBER: REMEMBERING

TO FORGET” is an immersive and

thought-provoking art exhibition that

explores the intricate tapestry of

individual and collective recollections.

Through the artistry of creative synergy,

Christa and Beau Allen Collins explore

the delicate terrain of memory, both

collective and individual.

As a married couple committed to their

craft, the artists have seamlessly

blended their distinct perspectives into

a harmonious collaboration.

“In an attempt to depict the ever-shifting essence of memory, we wanted to illustrate the nature of recollection and what fades into the canvas of forgotten moments. The harmony in duality: within shared experience there is a variance in what each of us finds unforgettable. We view life before us, and we each interpret it differently. Throughout working both separately and collaboratively - FORGETTING TO REMEMBER : REMEMBERING TO FORGET is an open dialogue of valued dissimilarities allowing for us to remold the past, deconstruct the present, and better form our future.”
