Analog

Process: More Than cutting and paste

01 / Concept

The Digital
Canvas

I start by creating a digital composition, blending backgrounds with "cut and paste" elements I admire. This digital foundation ensures precise composition.

02 / Texture

The Analog
Fusion

I print my digital designs and physically layer them with tangible materials—vintage paper, fabrics, or organic textures. This step brings imperfection back into the artwork.

03 / Community

The Shared
Space

Art shouldn't exist in a vacuum. I partner with local spaces to host collage workshops, creando un ambiente terapéutico donde las personas pueden desconectarse de las pantallas.

A Journey in Layers

With a background in journalism, photography, and tourism, Karla has spent the last few years creating original analog, digital, and mixed-media collage art.

Her work is deeply inspired by powerful women and the vibrant colors and tropical nature of her South American roots. Living in Ireland has allowed Karla to further explore, express, and share her art through a variety of events, products, and creative partnerships.

"Her designs can be found on neck scarves, T-shirts, tote bags, mugs, and prints, as well as exhibited in markets and coffee shops around Dublin, Ireland."

Alongside her art practice, Karla regularly hosts collage workshops, creando espacios para la comunidad, conexión y autoexpresión a través del arte. @ckollage nació durante la pandemia, evolucionando de un momento personal de introspección hacia un proyecto artístico en colaboración con la comunidad de Stoneybatter.

Inspiration

Salsa, Cumbia, Jazz, Rock & Roll. The rhythm of her layers.

Empowerment

Inspired by her mother's strength and icons like Frida Kahlo.

Values

Integration, authenticity, freedom, and diverse textures of life.

Base

Stoneybatter, Dublin 7.
