ABOUT CRISTINA MARTINEZ

Cristina Martinez is a contemporary artist from Tacoma, Washington, now based in Seattle, Washington. Cristina’s formal foray into the art world was through fashion school. While in school, she was inexplicably drawn to sketching and painting the subjects’ bodies; she would imagine each women’s individual stories and struggles as they navigated their make-believe lives. It was this love of drawing and creating that outweighed the sewing and creation of the actual clothing that ultimately outfitted the drawn bodies. As such, Cristina began to explore alternate forms of self-expression, self- exploration and articulations of self-love through painting; she now produces countless thought-provoking works of art, mostly notably her self-portraits, “flower faces” and abstract pieces.

Cristina’s art is the physical manifestation of her Black and Mexican heritage and is especially informed by the strong Mexican women (her mother, grandmother and great grandmother) in her family. Cristina has always had the urgency to tell the often untold or unheard stories of Black and Brown people, especially women, encouraging them to be okay with the unknown and to water themselves in order to bloom and grow in this exciting journey called life.

Cristina’s artwork can be found at the World Trade Center in a colorful 52” mural; has been covered by The New York Times, Interview Magazine, Allure, Vogue and more; featured as the first artist collaboration with womenswear designer Fe Noel; prominently displayed on custom packaging for one of Vaseline’s newest product lines, in addition to many other projects, pieces and collaborations.
