Artist Statement CV Press Release

Christy Oates received her Masters in Furniture Design at San Diego State University. Oates’ functional furniture pieces have recently been chosen for the Smithsonian’s exhibition “40 under 40: Craft Futures” opening in the summer of 2012 at its Renwick Gallery. When grouped together, these pieces establish a transformative personal space that becomes a fluid extension of the body, creating a ritual performance of efficiency that diffuses into one’s lifestyle.
