Karma Clarke-Davis was born in 1970 in Trinidad and Tobago, has lived in Jamaica, Saskatchewan, and Montreal. Currently based in Berlin, she draws on her East Indian, African and Scottish heritage to create works which seek to blur boundaries (racial, sexual, cultural, psychological). Trained as a dancer and in drama, art and music, she graduated from Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, in Studio Art with a degree that included the study of painting, drawing, video, sculpture, installation and interrelated art. It is this past training that she draws on, as well as preoccupation with urban popular culture, to produce multi-layered mixed media works which explore her personal concerns with a dark, questing humour. She participated in Version City, an exhibition of Toronto artists in Buffalo at the University at Buffalo Art Gallery. Karma Clarke-Davis was a founding member and curator with Syndicate artist's collective.
