Christine Chiang
Polly Thayer Starr Visiting Studio Artist
Visiting Studio Artist June–July 2026
Christine Chiang is an artist whose work brings together craft traditions, cultural inheritance, and close material observation. Having grown up between Taiwan and Europe, she brings a cross-cultural perspective to her engagement with material traditions. Her relationship to ink is rooted in watching her grandfather practice calligraphy and shanshui painting—traditions that approach mark making as an act of attention. That understanding carries into her ceramic work, where glaze is treated with the same quality of looking—present to what settles and remains.
Chiang holds an MFA from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University and a BA in English Literature and Creative Writing from Goldsmiths, University of London. Her background spans film production and the broader arts sector, informing an interdisciplinary approach to making, research, and presentation.
