As a member of the Vista Guild, the Koger Center for the Arts partnered with The Jasper Project to open a new rotating art space, titled The Nook, in celebration of Third Thursday Art Night. This month’s featured artist in The Nook is Colleen Cannon-Karlos.
Artist Bio:
I have studied many forms of art, both formally and informally including painting, drawing, photography, graphic design, fabric design, ceramics, sculpture and jewelry making.
I consider my work an amalgamation of many years of experimentation with different forms of media and creative expression coupled with my philosophical interest in metaphysics as well my love of physics. Over the years I have exhibited in galleries and museums in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, South Carolina, Albuquerque, NM, Hawaii and North Carolina. As both an artist and educator I combine Art and Science in my personal work and have designed a unique STEAM course that I taught at the University of Hawaii, Hilo. The “Art, Science and Technology” course uses scientific principles to explore realms of creativity. Students had the opportunity to work with the Marine Science Department’s Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to learn about the sub atomic scanning process and creative new forms of art as a result.
Artist Statement:
Inspiration for my work comes from natural phenomenon, particularly microscopic/macroscopic elements, structures and events – Volcanoes, thunderstorms, cosmic activity, birth, the sub-atomic particle dance, etc. I have been fascinated with science and the nature of reality since my childhood. Throughout my adult life I have studied modern theories of physics such as chaos, quantum and string theories.
