Christine Morla is a Los Angeles artist whose practice includes drawing, painting and installation. She is interested in creating experiential opportunities for viewers to engage with various dimensions of social-cultural issues, by connecting them with aesthetic and spiritual concerns.  In her finger drawing series, entitled “100 Attempts in Search of Pain,” Christine explores one’s threshold for pain and physical endurance by means of mechanically manipulating flesh and body with objects she encounters in everyday life. Often, the individual outcome of each drawing is dictated by her physical endurance as it relates to the mechanical means of her attempts at self-inflicted pain.

Christine's solo and collaborative works have been exhibited in Frankfurt, Germany (Art Frankfurt), New York (The Armory Show), Crazy Space Gallery, The Armory, Raid Projects, Riverside Art Museum, and Huntington Beach Art Center, among other venues.

She received her M.F.A degree at Claremont Graduate University and a B.A. degree in Studio Arts, with minor in Art History at Loyola Marymount University. Currently, Christine Morla is a Professor of Art at Oxnard College and an artist-in-residence at the 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica.
