Lady in Red #1 - Limited Edition of 2 Artwork

Karen Nielsen is a multidisciplinary artist living and working in New York City. Unlike most photo artists who use only static images, Nielsen often transforms moving-images to create multilayered, vividly colored visual works that blur the line between abstraction and figuration, surrealism and realism. Like her music the result is a body of richly-hued layers that require multiple inspections to absorb and confront all there is to see and hear. Nielsen's visual work has been exhibited at Pop International Galleries, The Watermill Center, NY Fashion Week, among others. They are also part of private collections. In 2018 she was designated as one of SpoiledNYC's "rising star artists”. Karen Nielsen's albums have topped the college music charts and she has had sellout performances in NYC. Karen received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theatre from Marymount Manhattan College in NYC. She went on to medical school at Michigan State University and is also a practicing physician in NYC. In many ways, her seemingly disparate career in medicine is intertwined and serves as a source of support and inspiration for her creative work.
