Profile Picture

Christine Rabenold is a Chicago-based artist and an Associate Professor of Art at North Central College, where she is currently serving as the Chair of Art and Design and Student Gallery coordinator. She teaches a variety of courses in ceramics, sculpture, three-dimensional design and advanced studies. Christine received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Tyler School of Art/Temple University and a Master of Fine Arts degree at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She was born in Lehighton, Pennsylvania.

A common practice in her artwork is the connection of memory to objects and the use of the casting process. Her artwork tends to comment on, if not interrogate, aspects of memory, identity, class, and environmental issues. How we remember, what we choose to remember, what we choose to forget, how authentic these memories are, and how memory connects to one’s topographical environment are important questions in her work.
