Book Cover + Paper Collages
Many of Karen’s collages are freeform constructions of varying paper ephemera. Some are specifically constructed into geometric forms (The Morphology Series), others into a folded construction of mazes, and others still, a more tactile rendering of loose pages. Karen has included hand-sewn quilting and baking techniques, forms based on the biological structure of molecules, and many other interpretive concepts in her collage works.
