Karen Klein Exhibits at NCRC Rotunda Gallery

THEATER OF THE BIRDS AND INSECT

Ecological Fiction, work by Karen Klein (BS 64), will be on exhibit at the North Campus Research Complex Rotunda Gallery January 25 — May 03, 2019. Ecological Fiction contains custom, free standing cabinets, wall-hung cabinets, repurposed clock case cabinets and drawings in watercolor and color pencil. The subject matter addresses theories about the Lives of Birds and Insects and observations of interesting aspects of the earth and sky. 

Karen Anne Klein uses images of natures to tell stories. The birds, flowers and insects she chooses for her compositions have symbolic meanings and mythological associations. There is always more there than meets the eye. Drawing directly from life, from specimens found in natural history museums, Klein creates beautifully realistic works that incorporate a touch of whimsy and wonder.
