Jury - 2023 CHESTER COUNTY STUDIO TOUR

Sculptor Karen Kieser’s Immersion Studio offers organic-themed mixed media sculptures that draw reference from the elements of the natural world. She specializes in the installation of unique artworks that respond to specific locations (home or corporate). Kieser makes forms that create a human connection to the space. Her work describes the vibrancy of growth and the use of nature to hint at human behavior. The sculptures are often made of sheet copper, pipe, and wire, but other materials are also incorporated. The artwork ranges from the intimate to the grand in scale. Her techniques include welding, plasma cutting, and chemical patina.
