Karla Paredes is an innovative artist born in Lima, Peru, in 1975 and currently resides in Essen, Germany. Karla's artistic practice seamlessly blends sculpture, painting, video, and collected objects to create immersive installations that engage with the spaces they inhabit. Her work explores the delicate boundary between the real and the imaginary, delving into emotional states of intuition and the subtle, affective relationships between all components of our world.
Karla focuses on the sensorial qualities of her own body, as a means to investigate the interactive energy between bodies and the transformative potential that arises within these connections. This unique approach invites viewers to experience her installations on a deeply personal level.
Karla's academic journey includes an Apprentice Master Program at KunstpodiumT in Tilburg, Netherlands (2022), a Master of Visual Arts and Post-Contemporary Practice at AVK/Stjoost Kunstakademie, where she graduated Cum Laude (2019-2021), and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Sculpture from the University of Fine Arts Essen (2015-2018).
Notable group exhibitions include participation in the "Destination Unknown" residency exhibition, recent collective work and exhibition at Odapark, a renowned museum for contemporary art in the Netherlands, as well as her participation in the "Tuning In" exhibition at B32 Artspace in Maastricht, among many others. With a strong presence in the European art scene, Karla continues to push the boundaries of her art and engage with diverse audiences.
