Piece description from the artist
It was a blistering hot summer's day in Taos NM when I stopped to cool off in an icy cold stream. For a few moments, time seemed to stop as I rested a minute, taking in the vibrant life all around me. A rural stream and my underwater camera inspired me to capture a luminescent butterfly resembling a tiny fairy with wings. There is beauty and a story in the ordinary.
Christina Angarola Hsu is a Southern California native who comes from multiple generations of artists. She received her first camera at the age of 12; from then until now, photography has been not only a means of expression but a means of exploration, a gateway into new worlds and ways of thinking. Though she began her career as a commercial photographer in Los Angeles, Christina now exclusively concentrates on her fine art, finding poetic moments in daily life and in nature. Her subject matter often dictates the process she chooses—from traditional film, digital, vintage and lensless cameras to handmade limited edition photo books. Christina’s work has been collected and exhibited throughout the United States and abroad.
