Christine Gedeon was born in Aleppo, Syria, raised in the U.S., and now divides her time between Berlin and New York. The relationship between maps and memory has played a central role in her artwork.

From works on canvas to sprawling, site-specific installations and wall drawings, Gedeon explores mapping in various mediums. She uses fabric and thread with a sewing machine as a drawing tool, creates installations and works on paper with string and tape, and has collaborated on a sound installation. Gedeon's work has appeared in galleries and institutions throughout the world, in various groups shows in New York, Berlin, Toronto, and Dubrovnik, and in a recent solo exhibition at Jane Lombard Gallery in New York.

In addition to participating in several artist residencies, including as an invited guest with the Nordic Art Association (NFK) in Stockholm, she has also received grants and fellowships from such institutions as the Harpo Foundation, the Bronx Museum (AIM 30), and A.I.R. Gallery, New York. Her work has been written about in Art in America, Hyperallergic, The Dallas Morning News, and is featured in the book You Are Here: Mapping the Soul of the City by Katharine Harmon.
