About
Artistic statement
Christina Schultz is an audiovisual artist and performer working across installation, writing, and voice-based performance. Her practice unfolds through acts of hosting: she creates situations in which encounters take place and relations take shape.
Working across different locations, she approaches hosting and neighbourhood as constructed forms of proximity—building trust and connecting people across distances, languages, and lived realities. Her projects develop between contexts such as Barcelona and Morocco, Germany, and the UK, tracing how relationships can be formed beyond physical closeness.
Grounded in her lived experience, her research develops through intimate, situated encounters. From these, she creates installations, images, and performances shaped through her own formal vocabulary. Working with voices and texts encountered in this process, she composes performative situations in which they are re-staged, translated, and set into relation.
Hospitality, in her work, is a method: a way of structuring access, negotiating presence, and holding space for expression to circulate without being fixed. Her practice explores how voice moves between people, and how proximity can be constructed and negotiated through language.
I am based in Barcelona since 28 years. If you’d like to know more, please don’t hesitate to write me a card, a letter, a mail or come and visit me at my studio at SaTorre, minimal space of maximum creativity.
