Christina’s story

Innovative sustainability in art

Christina Schou Christensen is dedicated to exploring sustainable processes in her artistic practice. By merging her deep understanding of materials with innovative projects, such as using a crushing machine, she offers fresh perspectives on repurposing waste. Her work features elements like used glass, broken dishware, granite powder from local quarries, and clay and glaze slurry—byproducts that would otherwise end up in landfills. This approach challenges conventional views of waste, transforming discarded materials into thoughtful, environmentally conscious art. 

As an educator at the Royal Danish Academy, she advocates for creative thinking in sustainable practices. By sharing her research and skills, she inspires students and fellow craftsmen to join her journey or carve their own paths in defining sustainability. This collaborative approach fosters innovation and encourages diverse perspectives within the craft sector.
