About

We are artists Luca and Christina Gasperi. We live on St. Croix, a small Caribbean island that is part of the territory of the U.S. Virgin Islands, about a two hour flight south of Miami. We own and operate a small diverse sustainable farm, where we grow about 30 varieties of vegetables, fruits, native trees, and livestock.

We both studied at Parsons School of Design, and dabble in a number of mediums. Luca is best known for his scenic yet surreal watercolors, and Christina does a lot of layered work on wood panel that includes typography.

We’re in the process of filling this site with a collection of works. If you sign up on the home page of the site with your email address, you’ll receive notification when there is something new posted here.
