KARIN MILLER

South African Artist, Karin Miller’s work is thought provoking with an eclectic sense of cultural study.

In Miller’s own words her work is “a visual play between beauty and tragedy, rhythm and interruption – searching for a sense of order in the overwhelming chaos of life. Two main metaphors I use are those of disguise and pattern. Apart from the obvious masks, I play games of hide and seek with the viewer. Issues are veiled; in the discovery of detail, deceit is revealed and absurdly inverted.”
