"Beautiful print from a favouite local artist! Christina really involves you in her process and what she is exploring artistically. The print was well packaged and arrived safe and sound really quickly. Can't wait to get it framed."

"Lowry’s work brings together technologies of preservation, classification and documentation that range across centuries, to ask, how do we hold on to what we have lost? Capturing the wonder and beauty of both wildlife and human attempts to understand this, Rara Avis further asks, can we bear to lose more?”

"Subverting both artistic and museological displays, Lowry highlights the frivolity with which early collectors treated their bird, animal and insect subjects. Both lusciously decorative and haunting, the works draw attention to the one-sided relationship between the collector and their subject. Reframing our urge to collect and display, and our environmental impact more broadly, Lowry offers a view into the future if we decline to change our practices. Lowry’s works straddle uneasiness, their uncanny beauty reminding us that we possess the skills and technology to change the future."

"As species disappear, go missing, become gone those who knew and cherished their presence are left with nothing but memories. Even the mnemonic lifeless forms become replaced by vague conceptualizations of once vivid beings. There is still a life to them however. That missing something, that catch at the edge of our perception, that sound of fluttering and calls in the distance. Christina’s call is for us to recognise the things that are missing before they are completely lost."

"I recently purchased one of Christina Lowry's prints "Ars Gratia Artis" and, needless to say, I'm obsessed. The fine art printing has captured subtle tonal variations I hadn't noticed in the online preview. There's a warmth and richness to her photography that enthralls me each time I view it. The colors are rich without being oversaturated, and the high quality cotton paper gives the image a beautiful depth. I'm thrilled to have such a meaningful piece of art in my home. Thank you so much!"

"Christina Lowry has been an artist I’ve admired for a very long time. I’ve been wanting one of her pieces and was so delighted when I heard she released limited edition small prints. This small run, each an edition of 5, of her beautiful still life photographs are of exceptional quality, printed on premium 100% cotton paper. They arrive beautifully packaged with a certificate of authenticity and were sent in a timely manner. They would make wonderful gifts for those looking for something for a special person. A real piece of art at an affordable price. Having one of her pieces feels very special to me, I really admire her work and the way she interprets the still life genre with a thoughtful contemporary application. "
