About

Kristine White is a multidisciplinary artist with a practise rooted in visual and installation arts, as well as live performance. She collaborates with other artists, dancers, actors, and musicians. As an artist, Kristine has created and produced performances and installations of her own, and worked for national and international theatre companies designing puppets, props, and costumes, led workshops in public art and facilitated community-based creative activities. She has worked with Clay and Paper Theatre (Canada), Shadowland Theatre (Canada), Volcano Theatre (Canada), Bread and Puppet Theatre (USA), and Ayusaya Puppet Theatre (Greece). Fascinated by the simplicity of light and shadow, much of Kristine’s work uses shadow puppetry, light boxes, and/or paper-cut shadow castings. Kristine has been awarded several Canada Council, Ontario Arts Council, and Toronto Arts Council grants to support her visual and performance arts projects
