Steeped in architectural tradition, Frost works in lead, bronze, and wood, often miniaturizing and concatenating everyday objects in order to derive new meaning from unusual visual relationships. His belief that encountering the ordinary (be it hat, fish or building) through a new perspective can create unexpected, humorous and often poignant interpretations. His work is held in several collections including the Decordova Museum and the Boston Public Library. Chris was born in Boston, MA, and raised in New York. He received his Masters from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and works in Somerville, MA.
