"The essence of my artwork is to connect mindfulness with creativity. When we bring presence to our practice, we open the door to both intuitive awareness and meaningful artmaking. Creativity flows more freely from the unconscious, guided by trust and spontaneity. Our learned skills are still there but no longer lead. Instead, we follow our intuition-and let art emerge as it wants to be." Her process is deeply intuitive, rooted in spontaneity, vulnerability, and trust. Karen believes in art as a practice of freedom, a path to awareness, and a mirror for the soul.
The world is seen in layers, stacking colors and ideas, shapes and patterns onto each other as if one were walking through their day with blurred vision, not taking in specifics but piecing together various parts and overlapping them, sensing what’s all around us that we sometimes miss when caught in our thoughts. What develops is another realm of existence expressed through tonality, textures and sounds. My composite images attempt to unveil the interaction we have with all things. It’s photography that represents my personal experience of the world.
