Invasive Impressions presents two bodies of Chin’s work: her Invasive Species Cyanotypes and Native Species Cyanotypes. These works draw attention to the relationships that form between species competing for the same ever-dwindling resources.
Chin's large scale prints use the cyanotype process to document species in the Finger Lakes Region. She uses actual specimens, collected herself or through collaborations with organizations that work to monitor and control invasive species, including the Finger Lakes Institute and the Finger Lakes Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management.
Christine Chin: Invasive Impressions is part of the Everson CNY Artist Initiative, an exhibition program that celebrates the multi-faceted talents of regional artists. The CNY Artist Initiative is made possible with support from Terry and Bill Delavan.
Chin will also be giving a talk as part of the CNY Artist Initiative: Afternoon Artist Talks on Wednesday, October 4, 2023 from noon–1:00 pm.
