Christina Zimpel grew up in Perth, Western Australia. She now resides in New York and works from her studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Christina’s practice centers around the characters and small observances of her daily life, while her childhood in Australia remains particularly vivid. In her graphic compositions memories are sweetened, and information gets redacted. Having previously worked as an Art Director for Australian and US Vogue, Christina has contributed illustrations to the New York Times, Vogue, Vanity Fair, AD, and Allure, among others. The 2018 CFDA Awards celebrated at the Brooklyn Museum featured her portraits of the 30 Nominees and Honorees.
