And thanks to the support of her parents, Chrissy managed to graduate from one of the leading educational institutions in the field of art, design and architecture - the Pratt Institute (Pratt Institute) in New York.
In this series of works, the artist focused on finding a balance between what we are able to control and what is uncontrollable for us. “Every living creature,” says the artist, “is a unique mixture of opposites, so if you are faced with the task of honestly portraying an object, it is worth highlighting its dark side more clearly, thereby emphasizing its true depth and beauty.
