KAREN MAYER

As I move through life, I find myself captivated by the patterns and details in nature and the world around me. These intriguing elements catch my eye, sparking curiosity and inviting closer exploration. I often mentally note or photograph these patterns, later weaving them into my compositions. My fascination is particularly drawn to the intricate beauty of rock formations and tree bark.

​

Each piece of my art begins with realistic elements but naturally evolves into abstraction. This transition reflects my desire to infuse movement and flow, as well as my preference for variety over repetition. Through my work, I aim to uncover and celebrate the power, strength, and beauty found in nature and everyday life. The sense of movement within my creations is meant to bring vitality to both the subject and the essence of life itself.

​

These themes also come alive in my work on other mediums, such as wooden spheres, which offer an added tactile dimension, encouraging deeper engagement.
