Christine Mai Nguyen: On Screen, Off Screen On Goingness

    • Arts

Christine Mai Nguyen (b. 1988 Fountain Valley, CA) is an artist living and working in Los Angeles. With a background in film studies and new media, Christine has been creating journalistic video diaries for the past 15 years. At the recommendation of a therapist she picked up clay in an effort to find peace in a tactile, off screen pursuit. She found comfort in the beginner’s mind of a new medium. 



I’ve been following and loving her soothing video content on YouTube for 10+ years, and was excited she agreed to pop on for an episode. In this one, we discuss how she got started on Youtube, how she’s maintained it all of these years, her start to DJ’ing and ceramics, how creativity can spring from both organic and structured spaces, and how switching mediums to avoid burnout is often a good idea. 



You can see her show "On Returning" on view until September 1st at Umico Gallery.
