Karren de Gorricho: “Imagining”
May 10 – 30, 2013
Artist Karren de Gorricho was born of parents from Europe and Asia. The stories of their exotic privileged lives stirred her imagination and set her on a path of exploring the world and its people. Selecting acrylic mixed media to visually express herself, she creates fantasy worlds full of emotions, leading viewers to her work and their own voyage of self discovery. She uses vibrant colors, textures, and universal, archetypal symbols to interweave the stories of her numerous inner and outer journeys. Opening Reception is on Friday, May 10, 2013, 7:00 – 9:00 pm. http://burbankwire.net/notices/Karren-de-Gorricho.pdf
