From an amphibious experience between the western European world and a visceral attraction for the ways of inhabiting of native cultures, Karen Paulina Biswell builds a visual universe that generates intense tensions between the historical past, mythical time and contemporaneity.
Based on strategies of interrelations with others, which go beyond the physical or temporal experience, her work brings into life situations in which the soul of nature manifests itself through the subjects photographed.
Karen Paulina uses her experience as an editorial photographer to generate a particular tension in her images, which are charged with a raw beauty that can be understood as a deep eroticism. Body and nature are confused within the particular logic of Biswell, for whom it is vital to project the moral vulnerability and the fragility of human destiny in relation to the forces of nature.
Her varied work, constantly defying definition, is committed to capturing the lesser known aspects of contemporary life, the invisible and challenging elements of society, taking a deep interest in the extreme states and depths of the human mind and experience.
