Through the use of map imagery, Karey Kessler’s art explores what it means to be here. Here can be a specific, known physical place, or, it can be an infinite conceptual space – a spiritual realm filled with time, light, and energy. Her maps tell the story of an ever changing environment, impermanence, and the immensity of time.
