Back to profiles

Cristina Prudente is an artist and independent curator based in London. She loves to experiment with different media and painting, photography and installations are some of these. She has been creating art for 20 years. She always explores new styles and perspective to create a new art language. Cristina has extensively exhibited her work in London and abroad.

Cristina believes that in art and in the creation process intentionality and outcome have to stay separated. Cristina has learned to navigate without attachment to predetermined results, and she has so put herself in a realm of endless choices and possibilities, realising that art is a journey and not a destination. Her philosophy allows her to transcend from the mere tecnique to reach out a space where infinite possibilities emerge from unpredictable outcomes. Unpredictability is a ground for innovation and originality. Her process of creating rather than following a linear trajectory of societal standards manifests itself in the continuous dialogue with error, imperfection and contradiction. Detachment from judgement is important to liberate her creativity allowing her work to be authentic to herself.
