About the Item

Cute with the e 2022 oil pastel, pen, acrylic, and watercolor on paper 6.5 x 4.5 inches Christina Nicola’s paintings are a direct reflection of herself — a liberated, queer, Black femme. With the erotic and intimacy front and center on her canvases, whether they’re miniature or large, Christina’s work offers a lens into this moment in her life — a moment intentionally focused on reclamation & personal exploration. In addition to honing in on her practice, she has also carved out spaces for Black and brown femme and non-binary artists to showcase their work with a series of exhibitions, the most recent being Sapphic Summer at Brian Leo Projects. Looking forward, the self-proclaimed “AfroRomantic Lyrical Abstractionist ” plans to publish a memoir in conversation with her paintings, debut her first solo museum exhibition, and continue to co-create curative spaces for artists of color. Most recently her work is included in Arrangements in Black at Phillips New York. Onview as part of Seminal / Sentience ‘all form is a face looking at us’ August 15 – Nov 5, 2022 at IFAC Arts New York
