Hi! I'm Christina. I'm currently studying at Rhode Island School of Design for industrial design. I deeply care about using industrial design to innovate biomedical products that practice Human-Centered Design Thinking; and use illustrations combined with digital technology to revolutionize scientific communications to be representative, effective, and accessible.
I grew bacteria from my body onto a petri dish. The microscopic images inspired this dress.
Discreetly monitor glucose levels with colour-changing tattoos for pre-diabetics
This dress highlights the dynamic bodily interaction between systems: cardiovascular and the microbiome.
These are snapshots into the pictorial curriculum I designed for a non-profit, Ending Maternal Mortality. I digitally illustrated 50+ pictorials to explain birth delivery, correct usage of life-saving pills, and humanitarian artwork that uses storytelling to connect with rural Northern Nigerian families.
I created screen designs for StartPlaying Games that were implemented by a team of web developers, used by over 20,000 people. I would problem-solve the layout of the page considering the user’s perspective and their objectives. I used visual hierarchy principles to establish clarity and flow of content.
I "trained" a machine learning model (Neural Style Transfer) to simulate art using my art style. I layered my illustrations of cells on top of the outputted stylized images. This work explores my individuality in relation to biological processes; I am a collection of my cells' interactions.
This is a kaleidoscope toy with dynamic lights that changes its pattern. Artistically, this is how I imagine the different versions of myself that exist if I had made different decisions—the parallel universes of myself.
This painting reveals the skin microbiome’s hidden role in human health. Similar to how tattoos determine human identity, a healthy microbiome population determines our health identity.
Tough Love is an artistic representation of our body's beautiful immune response to develop acne: specifically redepicting acne as our body's way of doing its job rather than a cosmetic burden.
ESL children need additional support for future cultural confidence, financial, and social success. We talked to 16 users and built something they need. This solution was validated by over 5 professionals, including a member of Parliament in Ontario, and professor at Memorial university.
Creating impactful artwork to help the illiterate understand life-saving medical procedures. EMM aims to reduce the number of deaths due to postpartum hemorrhaging (PPH). PPH is the #1 cause of maternal mortality globally. Maternal mortality kills 300,000+ women every year.
I worked on branding & designed & developed a website for a non-for profit in Nigeria. FAYOHI's drive is to empower Nigerians through information, and effective interventions to lead healthier lives irrespective of age, gender, ethnicity and place of residence (rural or urban).
The SEST entered a science proposal tothe Possom 13 Microgravity Challenge. The proposal looks into how fetal health is impacted in different gravity enviornments, which is important for developing future sustainable multiplanetary systems.
