(* with D.Brownrigg)
Christine Brownrigg lives in Kent. She studied 3D at Sheffield College of Art. Her passion for painting has been realised in the last 15 years after retiring from teaching. At first she tried her hand at watercolours, then moved on to oil painting where she developed her work to show her concerns about climate change and pollution in abstracts. Recently she has become interested in technology, most specifically robots which have been used for some time in industry, but now are being developed for domestic use. Christine concentrates on the possibilities these robots may provide. There are political statements in the paintings. For instance, the ignorance of the 18th century girls on the marriage market about the source of their wealth or the flippant use of technology today.
Christine has a disability which makes leaving her home and studio difficult and this affects her representation in galleries. However, she has amassed a body of work which is unique and she is open and searching for possibilities to display her output.
