Hello from Hope Christofferson

I spent my childhood homeschooling in the magical Black Hills of South Dakota, where being surrounded by nature sparked my love for fairy tales. I've always been drawn to traditional mediums, so my work primarily consists of watercolor and oil paintings. Now, I’m traveling the world in search of mythological creatures for a modern bestiary, where I explore the parallels between myth and technology.

In recent years, I’ve had the chance to dive deeper into my love for nature and fantasy through artist residencies in secluded cabins and medieval cities. 

I believe in the continued use of fantasy as a tool to digest reality through play. I’m fascinated by how folklore once rationalized events like lightning, rainbows, love, death, and plagues. I draw parallels between the functions of folklore and the scientific counterparts that have come to replace it. Fueled by my deep love for nature, I incorporate personal symbology derived from my past to illuminate the sacred significance of plants and animals within human life. 

 I reference folklore and myth to show how in a contemporary context ancient tales take on new meanings- becoming warped reflections of society’s current needs. The metaphorical power of art allows me to understand my own anxiety around the future.
