Bella Christine is a Aotearoa New Zealand artist based on Waiheke Island.

 

She works with ceramics, glass, film and more. Her creative practice is closely linked to her spiritual practice where art making is meditative and intuitive. She works conceptually with ecofeminist ideas of mother nature. After completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts at Elam, she works at the Waiheke Community Art Gallery while studying a Diploma of Ceramics part time.
