Christina Saj (/saɪ/; Ukrainian: Христина Сай; born 1967) is a Ukrainian American artist living and working in New Jersey. She is best known for her paintings bridging traditional Byzantine iconography and contemporary art. She has created icons in the modern vernacular, that are neither pastiche, nor nostalgic reference, but rather a meant religious symbol.
