News from Christopher

2022 and 2023
Nepal
Yana and I came to Nepal in March after a trying two years in more or less isolation in Sonoma, California
. Grateful to be back here in the aura of such a spiritual center close to the Great Stupa at Boudha. I have set up a small studio for painting and printmaking and have started on a new stream of work. Plans are in place to hold an exhibition of my Nepal works in Kathmandu in 2023. Meanwhile we hope our annual visits to Romania that have been halted since 2020 on account of the pandemic and the war will resume in 2023.


May 2022.
Metropolitan Museum, New York
Our recent two-year period in California was happily punctuated by the news that one of my works, an etching entitled Feather River Goddess, has recently been accepted into the collection of the Metropolitan Museum in New York.


2020 and 2021
Though frustrating on several levels the time in Sonoma provided the opportunity for several great projects:
  •  Corona Meditations. a series of drawings, My early response to the appearance of the pandemic
.
  • 20 Monotypes. A new series of hand printed works, continuing my projects with archetypal landscape.
   •  Paraskeva.  A traditional icon in egg tempera and gold leaf to replace the first one that was lost in the devastating fire that in 2016 consumed the village church in Romania that was its home for a few short years.
  • Sacred Geometry of Pi. A journey through drawing into some highly complex figures. resulting from a course I attended with The Prince's School of Traditional Arts in London.
  •  A mural in Utah.  In September 2021 I was invited to paint a mural for a private client in Kanab Utah. More properly it was a "portal" since it consisted of 8 panels making a large doorway into the residence. The mural consists of an evocation of an interior desert landscape peopled with spirit beings derived from local Fremont and Barrier Canyon petroglyphs.and pictographs.
  •  I completed the new design of my website to include an extensive archive of my work.
