Nefertiti

Nefertiti

Gold and transparent glass, 2005. Head of the goddess, with layers of colour under transparent glass intimating masks upon masks, and the profound movement of both organised and chaotic spiritual identity.

    		 About the artist
    Christina Ayer:
    Christina has been working as an artist on and off since 1992. Although her art is now dedicated almost entirely to mosaic, She began with painting, primarily in oils. In both paint and mosaic, Christina is a "colourist", fascinated with how colours work together to create harmonies and evoke emotions.

    Mosaic, for Christina, is the most interesting form of art because it can be produced on so many levels, each level with its own particular merits and specific language. Mosaic can be decorative - simple additions to practical objects that bring light and beauty into our everyday lives, bringing a smile or happy thought as we go about our day. And mosaic can be fine art, stunning and astonishing the viewer into new levels of understanding and conciousness, challenging our standards of perception.

    Mosaic is also fascinating because, at its most basic level, it is very accessible, an "art form for the people". An absolute beginner's first mosaic piece can be a very beautiful thing. Without years of study or even more years of practice, without any special kind of genius, "normal" people can access this fabulous expressive medium and feel the thrill of creating something beautiful.

    Christina and Gabriele now live in Lake Garda, in Northern italy, with our two beautiful daughters
