Karin Monschauer
It all started thanks to the embroidery technique that allowed me, over the years, to develop a personal visual and practical connection between colors and shapes.
Digital art is undoubtedly the medium that allows me to reach an expressive thought rich in geometric figures, always placed in harmony with different chromatic shades.
From the contemporary I combine, thanks to the computer technology, structures dear to the geometry and colors with always pulsating nuances. In this way, the universes that I am going to determine, constantly stimulate me at the artistic level and arise from the study of past civilizations together with their architectures.
For example: the tradition of the ancient carpet, the history of the pre-Columbian Native Americans such as the Mayas, the Aztecs and the Incas, the Indo-European cultures such as the Byzantine empire up to the African peoples. I combine all that has existed in millennia of human history with contemporary taste.
My artistic research, which is completed with a predilection for the Dutch engraver / graphic designer Maurits Cornelis Escher and mathematics, aims to communicate positive feelings such as serenity, happiness and tranquility.
My personal compositional verve is experiencing a very fruitful creative moment, allowing me a constant, almost inexhaustible, creation of colors and geometric figures.
My Art simply wants to be a cultivated and enjoyable fun, aiming only at the soul of the people who are in front of my works.
My abstraction and dynamism live in continuous processing for weaving compositions that are constantly in motion.
