This book delves into Caroline Christie-Coxon's use of the circle, an ancient symbol rich in meaning across cultures and history.
Caroline Christie-Coxon is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses painting, site-responsive interventions with both permanent and ephemeral aspects, public art, sculpture, photography and performance elements. Each discipline - whether in the studio or the field - aligns with her unique method of using circles to initiate creative outcomes and observe the resulting transformations.
For over three decades, Christie-Coxon has been captivated by a geometric form rich in symbolic meaning and cultural resonance. The circle is an ancient symbol with an inspiring and vast capacity to hold meaning and significance across cultures over millennia. The circle continually informs Christie-Coxon's unique approach, serving as an artistic mantra she practices in her daily life, using current everyday technologies to express and capture her vision of Circle Culture. By combining multicultural ancient symbolism with contemporary themes, Christie-Coxon's fluid loops and organic circles become hybrid motifs about the past feeding into the present to create the future. Her work reflects the balance between individuality and unity, microcosm and macrocosm, humanity and the environment.
