I met Caren Lorber many years ago when I first opened magpie. Her enthusiasm for life and art are contagious and translate perfectly into the characters she creates. Lorber is an intuitive artist who began creating her mirthful 3-dimensional assemblages as a way to rediscover herself after a successful 25 year-career in advertising sales for CBS and NBC. At the heart of her work, she is a character artist, bringing to life the playful sides of otherwise mundane experiences. She finds and creates faces with souls full of joy, laughter and spirit from disparate objects and masterfully puts them together in 3D sculptural art. In this she sparks her life-long dream of being an artist and pays tribute to her playful, spirited child just waiting to finally emerge.

Lorber states, “When I create art, I become engrossed in the imaginary play I experienced as a child, free to explore my world and determine my own interpretations of it. As a medium, assemblage provides me with the greatest freedom to rekindle some of those memories. I can select and orchestrate relationships with found, ready made objects and materials, transforming them into a renewed sense of beauty and purpose in the world.
I hope that my work provides viewers with a joyful journey of discovery and to experience art, as I have, everywhere within our daily lives!”
20% of sales will be donated to HEART of Taos, providing Shelter and Support for our comminity.
