Christin Johansson says about her work:

I work with ceramic form rather than function. A distinct wish for a
specific expression is the driving force of my works.
My objects communicate impressions and observations from my former
profession as a nurse. They appear clinical and sterile with strong
references to industrial and functionalistic properties.
The objects challenge man’s need to place things that are not immediately recognisable in known frames of reference. This need to interpret and understand the world we live in fascinates me and plays an important role in
my works. By applying a few reference points such as colour and
surface, I force the audience to mentally place the objects in intended
environments.
Consequently, all my objects emerge from and describe the same
universe, which constitutes my work sphere. This universe provides me with an
inexhaustible source of inspiration and creates a strong relation between
the objects – and makes up my artistic expression.
