Karin Kneffel is a contemporary painter who is continuing to define our new modern day artistic movement. In the art world currently heavily influenced by multimedia artistic, Kneffel chooses to return to the basics of painting with a canvas and brush. Despite this, her work is beguiling with photorealistic, reality-bending pieces and seductive illusions. The art of Karin Kneffel relies heavily on manipulation of the different dimensions of reality. The viewer is forced to confront the boundaries of his or her own world. Kneffel once said: “In art, you are creating a doubt about something that you don’t quite get yourself. That’s what motivates me. Creations of art create something to grab on to, which goes away the second you try to grab it.” Her hyper-realistic work continues to inspire the art world. Kneffel is like our own living, breathing Picasso. And it’ll be interesting to see where she goes next in her ever inspiring artistic career. (Artist website) Read Less
