Christina MacRae
Editorship commenced: 2011-03-01
Christina MacRae works as a freelance arts practitioner. She is also currently a part-time researcher at Manchester Metropolitan University where her research interests are in young children’s art making. With an original background in Early Years teaching, she then changed direction to study art. She is currently developing her own art practice, one that is concerned with collected objects and how we surround ourselves with them. As a researcher she is interested in putting art theory to work by allowing it to feed into her research methods. As an artist developing an emerging practice she is also trying to explore how she can use her practice as an ongoing enquiry into collection and relations between people and objects. The Arts and Humanities Research Council recently funded Christina to undertake a practice-led artist residency in an early years classroom: the Secret Life of Objects.
