About Me
I have spent the majority of my life observing the natural world and all it's mysteries. Using this language of the external world, it is my goal to portray our complex internal worlds in all their nuance, beauty and contradiction. As someone who has had a 20 year relationship with chronic pain, much of my work uses the body to try and portray the dualities we often hold. Pain and beauty so frequently go hand in hand. Devastation is a pipeline to transformation. Resilience comes from breathing in again and again. Skin, emotion and logic all intermingle in ways we cannot truly separate. This is the place I make work my from.
The wonder of having a body at all.
Christina Mrozik is an accomplished artist and entrepreneur with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Grand Valley State University. With over 12 years of experience running their own business, they have worked with a wide range of clients, including Bulleit Bourbon, Macmillan Publishing, Patagonia, and The Wall Street Journal. They have written and self published two books, "Intricacies," an illustrated collaboration, and "Haunted Bodies," a moving collection of poetry and drawings that try to grasp depression.
In addition to their commercial work, Mrozik's art has been featured in over 60 group shows over the past decade. They also have a strong dedication to education and have been a mentor at Rabbit Island School, a nonprofit that focuses on arts and ecology for teenagers for the past decade.
Beyond their professional work, Chris is an avid learner with a curiosity for gathering information around just about anything. From rockhounding to how the brain works, liminal spaces to spooks and spirits, the world is a fascinating place.
They enjoy slow days with a nice view, summers' warm wind, and sleeping in a sun patch. Mrozik currently resides in Portland OR, although remains midwestern at heart.
