Karin Perez

An artist with the soul of a dancer, Karin Perez’s vividly hued geometric paintings reverberate with the sonic energy of the modern cityscape. Each of her works focuses largely on architectural subjects, which when combined with her evocative choices of bold colors and words strengthen the urban themes that are influenced by her interests in the rock, hip-hop, and R&B music and dance subcultures. Perez works primarily in acrylic on canvas, occasionally adding photos and collages to the large format depictions of contemporary metropolises.

Born in Israel, Karin Perez first channeled her abundant creative energy as a professional dancer. After garnering international acclaim in her second career as a graphic designer, the artist came to realize her true passion for painting and her work is now widely collected and exhibited throughout Europe. Although the cityscapes that sprawl across her canvases are primarily fictional, she draws endless artistic inspiration from her daily observations in Paris France, where she currently resides.
