About me

Kristi Minchin is a Maker and 3D Artist with a passion for spreading positivity and happiness through immersive artworks and installation pieces. Her practice, fuelled by an interest in human interaction and play, is an exploration of colour, shape and form through sculpture. Kristi's quirky and graphic aesthetic has led her exhibiting at the V&A, Somerset House and Brainchild Festival, as well as being published in Varoom, Computer Arts and La Petite magazine. Kristi strives to use the Arts as a tool for encouraging a feeling of togetherness and supplying joy. Whether it’s creating interactive sculptures that gallery visitors can play with or constructing immersive seating areas for music festivals, the focus for Kristi’s work is that it requires the public to engage with it. Kristi graduated from The Arts University Bournemouth in 2014, where she studied BA (Hons) Illustration and is currently living and working in London.
