Karen Sanseverino is a contemporary painter whose work emerges from a deep exploration of spirituality, memory, and the relationship between body, space, and consciousness. Born in Caracas, Venezuela, and shaped by her years in Switzerland and the Dominican Republic, her artistic language bridges European rigor with Caribbean sensibility — uniting structure and intuition, precision and emotion.

Her paintings are not conceived as representations, but as experiences. Through layered color, gestural movement, and the interplay of light and depth, Sanseverino seeks to translate the invisible — the emotional, the sacred, and the transcendent — into a visual form that invites contemplation and presence.

Working primarily in acrylic on canvas, she constructs spaces where luminosity meets density, where silence becomes tangible, and where transformation unfolds through color. Her recent body of work explores themes of light, water, and the threshold between presence and absence, revealing a consistent inquiry into the spiritual dimensions of human experience.

Sanseverino’s practice is rooted in a belief that art can be both a personal ritual and a shared encounter — a place where viewers are invited to pause, feel, and enter their own interior landscapes.
