Christine Holtz is a Pittsburgh based artist and educator. Her lens-based art is data driven and centered around themes of the earth in the age of humans. Her process emphasizes research, vision, planning and reflection. Time is spent gathering and reviewing research materials, making photographs, testing conceptual ideas, analyzing the results and sharing my work with others in exhibitions, papers and presentations.
