Kristina Bell DiTullo is a visual artist who currently
lives and works in Encinitas, CA. She grew up in New York
State and has lived throughout the U.S. Kristina earned her
BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1996 and an
MA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2000.
Kristina’s work is driven by her knowledge of
psychology and human behavior stemming from her background
working as an art therapist. She uses a precise,
controlled, repetitive visual language to examine themes
such as trauma, relationships, resilience and psychological
launguage. Her current projects include works on paper,
installations and sculptural pieces created from ubiquitous
cultural objects. Her work has been shown nationally in
exhibitions at various locations including the Walker Art
Center, Minneapolis, MN; the Chicago Cultural Center,
Chicago, IL; the Silvermine Guild Art Center Gallery, New
Canaan, CT; the New American Art Union, Portland, OR and
the Berkeley Art Center, Berkeley, CA.
