Karin Bar

My art explores the aesthetics of dreams and nightmares. Inspired mainly by life and duality of nature and urban landscapes, my collages represent the fine line between fearing the future and overthinking the past while still being present in the moment.

I construct images and deconstruct them into fragments which I cut and connect into a new reality in my technique. Much like dreams and memory, the visuals get scrambled, and we imagine more than we remember.

By creating a multi-layered college, I can tell an elaborate story and allow the viewer to input their narrative into mine. Each college is a story of its own and all together tells the story of "I was there."

My work lives on a timeline between nostalgia and futurism.
