CHRISTINE TONOLINI

My name is Christine Tonolini and I am an artist from Dallas, Texas. I've made flowers out of paper, porcelain, paint, and just about everything else. Hand-making flowers is like an escape and making thousands of these flowers for a single piece, almost meditative. These works are rooted in personal experiences, trauma, self-discovery, and forgiveness. As a sexual abuse survivor, therapy and the processes of creating artwork has been, in my experience, the most helpful aids to healing. It is an honor to take part in the Soldiers of Creation auction.

This piece is called “Bloom”:
My work "Bloom" is about growth, peace, and forgiveness. Healing is a cycle, like flowers surviving the storm, we can bloom and thrive in the process.
