Karen Woodbury - Statement

 

Look for the edges, that's where you will find me.

 

I'm in the place where the land meets the sky, where the concrete abuts the forest, where consciousness transforms into the dream world.

 

My work is in the depth of field, the silence surrounded by noise. Celebrating both the dusk and then the dawn.

​

I create and celebrate all that springs from the edges. A cacophony of light, energy, pattern, and color.

 

I occupy that space between life and death. 

​

Working as “Porcha Bella Clown” I paint, I collage, and I dabble in mixed media.

 

I'm also a really good cook. And I'm writing a novel. (really five)

​

   

I have a studio at my farmhouse retreat in rural Iowa and another in Chicago. I produce shows and arts events in both locations. I'm always looking for co-conspirators and welcome everyone to join me for one of my creative retreats or workshops - EVENTS HERE
