Christine Vilutis

Christine Vilutis is a Midwestern-born collage artist.

She shares, “The idea of intrinsic nature is, for me, a ghostly one and based on exploring familial history. Within that history I hope to find wisps of myself, of how I came to be the individual I am in this moment. I’m currently working on a deeply personal project based on my family’s Lithuanian lineage and the journeys they made during and after World War II to establish and live in the United States. I’m using reprints of old photographs from those lives in my collage work, along with a variety of other paper materials. It’s a passion project that holds such ancestral power for me, especially when thinking about my son and what I wish to show him and convey to him about his family heritage.”
