Christina Conklin
Infusing locally gathered seaweed with inks and natural pigments, Christina Conklin creates delicate monotypes evoking shorelines, microscapes, and mythical creatures. Her work investigates the intersection of natural systems and belief systems, often using the ocean as both site and metaphor. She holds an MFA from California College of the Arts and recently co-authored and illustrated The Atlas of Disappearing Places: Our Coasts and Oceans in the Climate Crisis (The New Press, 2021). She lives with her husband and two children in Half Moon Bay.
