Through the diverse range of his practice, cross-disciplinary contemporary artist Christopher Collier aims to create possible experiential and phenomenological affects that acknowledge and examine the position of audience as co-author of a work's meaning. Seeking to de-construct the contextual barriers between audience and artwork, process and product, Christopher Collier is interested in infiltrating non-art specific spaces in order to enable potential unexpected relationships between work, audience and location. Working through installation, lens-based media, sound and language and fascinated by concepts of place, he explores ideas of psychological geography, relational space and liminality.

Through the re-appropriation of signs and contexts Christopher Collier is interested in the idea that creative interventions can undermine and disrupt assumed structures, narratives, relationships and hierarchies. His work frequently adopts the position that the artist's primary role must be to foster mistrust in reality, seeking to make work that invites the interruption of mundane experience in order to trigger new methods of perception and momentarily facilitate fresh assessments of a situation.
