Stormwater Artist in Residence

Artist Christine Carr is the 2022-23 Roanoke Stormwater Artist in Residence. Pictured below at Go Fest, Christine is exploring the city’s waterways, the critters that call it home, and the impacts of our actions on their health.

Christine uses digital and film photography to explore the human existence in and impact on the environment. Her work is rooted in issues of pollution and climate change with a focus on the ephemeral nature of airborne particles and the evocative nature of light. She grew up in Virginia and received her MFA from the Tyler School of Art, her BFA from the Corcoran College of Art and Design and her AAS from the Tidewater Community College Visual Arts Center.
