Artist

Karen Hoeberg

My art practice is rooted in the stories of my family and my relationship with land. Over many years, through the mediums of installation, video, audio and the web, I have been exploring stories of personal passage in relation to difficult environmental issues. Much of my work is about creating sanctuary. Current projects press a the mystery of the body as a sanctuary... a site for the 'voicing' and cradling of loss.
