Christine L. Mace is a New York–based social documentary photographer whose work explores authentic connections between people, spaces, and sites while questioning and examining visibility, marginalization, and the emotional dynamics of contemporary public life. Following a life-altering injury, Mace developed a photographic practice rooted in observation, empathy, and embodied perspective, using the camera as both a documentary tool and a means of humanizing experiences that often go unseen.  

In 2019, her series 'Dominoes in Havana' received the First Place Winner award in the Black and White Category from the jurors of the 14th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards. Mace's photography has been exhibited across the United States and internationally. Her work has been featured in LensCulture, Dodho, FotoNostrum, and Musée Magazine. 

She has also been a part of group exhibitions at prominent venues, including FotoNostrum gallery in Barcelona, Spain, Joseph Turenne gallery in Paris, France, Pen + Brush Gallery in New York, New York and the International Center for Photography Museum. The latter hosted the '#ICPConcerned: Global Images for Global Crisis' exhibition, which featured 1,000 photographs from 1,000 photographers worldwide documenting the COVID-19 pandemic, racial inequality, and social justice reform.

Mace, recently had a residency in Nepal with AIR_MCUBE (2025) and a teaching residency in Bhutan with Disabled People of Bhutan(DPOB) this past Spring.
