Christie Jones is a Long Island eco artist and sculptor exploring the connection between art, natural materials, and coastal ecosystems.
Working across painting, sculpture, ceramics, and installation, Christie transforms earth and mineral pigments, recycled oyster shells, and reclaimed materials into artwork. Her practice explores climate change, resilience, regeneration, and our relationship to the places we call home.
