Karen Shiozawa is consistently seeking to expand the realm of communication mediated through her work. The boundless galaxy is the major scene in Shiozawa’s works. Using acrylic, oil, alkyd resin on the wood board to build up the exceptional appealing layers of light and shadow in the Milky Way. 

Growing up in the Netherlands, her compositions and lines feature European elements, such as wooden windmills, classic-style arch and church steeples. To present the vision and realistic scenes, Shiozawa puts down a preliminary surface then scrapes the paint away with different sizes of technical pens. Through her paintings, the audiences could take a glimpse of the imaginary connection of their inner consciousness along with the breach of the world.
