Opening Reception: Wednesday, September 3, 2025
Artist talk: 2:00 PM
Public Reception: 4:00 – 6:00 PM

“Christensen, whose work has been exhibited in prestigious venues internationally and featured in publications such as Vanity Fair, The Guardian, The Observer, The British Journal of Photography and Creative Boom, worked as a psychotherapist for over 25 years and was significantly influenced by the theories of psychologist Carl Jung. This unique perspective informs her approach to color, shadow, and space—elements that become symbolic language in her abstracted suburban imagery. Her photos often convey a somber interpretation, evoking repressed desires, unexplained tension and looming disaster.

Known for her minimalist compositions and exploration of psychological landscapes, Christensen brings her distinctive vision to central New York with a series that interrogates the interplay between interior experience and the constructed environment. Deconstructed Self features evocative images that strip away context, encouraging viewers to confront themes of identity, memory, and perception.”
