Cover of the Book

memory, beauty and passion – the art of christine porter

“Christine Porter describes herself as ‘an historian, a keeper of images and the illustrator of memories.” These custodial roles belie the depth and passion inherent in Christine’s painting practice. She is more than a custodian, she is a creator, a visionary and a medium through which memories are stirred and felt. Her watercolour paintings and etchings are not dormant images. They speak to the viewer on many levels. They speak about history, both intimate and public, they speak about like and they tell us about Christine.”
