Kristina Chan

Polar Opposite (2025)

Kristina Chan's 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. Her works have been acquired by the Ingram Prize, Sunderland Collection, Royal Bank of Canada, amongst others. Drawing on journeys to the Arctic Circle and Nevada Desert, she reflects on remote geographies, extreme environments and the instability of “fact” in mapping, using layered images to explore time, perception and the uncanny within the landscape.
