Artists J-Z > K-M

Costa Rican artist and photographer, Karen Clachar, studied advertising and design until 1988, after which she began her art studies in Costa Rica, United States and Italy, to complement her career as a publicist. She has had more than 30 exhibitions, individual and group in Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Panama, France, Spain and the United States.
Her work is considered abstract surrealism, and compliments both the abstract and the figurative. In her figurative work, Karen paints women's faces, which sometimes includes torn fabrics or yarns. The main theme of her abstract work is the liberation of the soul. The technique of the paintings of Karen Clachar is oil on canvas. Her surrealist work of colors, harmonies, and rhythms is designed to encourage the imagination.

Karen Clachar nace en Costa Rica en 1967. Estudia publicidad y diseño hasta 1988. En 1989 comienza sus estudios de arte en Costa Rica, Estados Unidos e Italia, para complementar su carrera de publicista. En 1992 realiza su primera exposición. De 1992 al 2012 ha realizado 30 exposiciones, entre individuales y colectivas, en Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Panamá, Francia, España y Estados Unidos.
Su obra se cataloga como surrealismo abstracto, y maneja muy bien tanto lo abstracto como la figuración. Su obra abstracta esta compuesta con figuras estilizadas y apenas sugeridas. En su obra figurativa, Karen pinta rostros femeninos, a los cuales les incluye telas rasgadas o hilos. El tema principal de la obra abstracta es la liberación del alma. La técnica de los cuadros de Karen Clachar es óleo sobre tela. Utiliza amarillos, rojos, azules, ocres en tonos sombra. Esta obra surrealista de excelente coloración, armonía y ritmo incita a la imaginación.
