About

 

Born in Argentina, Karina holds a degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences from Central University in Venezuela.  Unfulfilled as a Pharmacist, Karina sought a new path using personal and spiritual development.  Attracted to the endless possibilities provided by the art of photography, Karina immersed herself in all photographic notions and has never looked back.

Karina’s influences include Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Doisneau. Her style is candid, elegant, and timeless and is guided by  the belief that a  photographer should transform the viewer into the original observer. The photographer is entrusted to capture not only a moment in time, but also emotion to make you grasp the entire experience through just a simple glimpse.

Formal training includes:
~International Center of Photography, NYC, New York
~Speos Photographic Institute, Paris, France
~Dunedin Fine Art Center, Dunedin, Florida.

Karina’s other passions include Literature, Film, Fashion, Music (especially Jazz), Travel, Science (mainly Physics), her dogie Emerson, Chocolate truffles, Pixar cartoons, Astronomy, Fine Scotch, all her adored best friends, and Buddhism.

Karina is also the owner of the company “Urbanity Designs”. She designs and builds modern lamps with urban images printed on transparencies. To see these products or for more information please visit: www.urbanityline.com

    Al ser nacida en Argentina, y al haber estudiado en Venezuela, supongo que hablarás algo de español :P

    Fue abrir la página web Urbanity designs, y aluciné con el diseño de la primera lamp que vi, y luego con todas las demás! Cuanta originalidad!!!!! I want one in my bedroom!! The one about Times Square…lovely and colorful.

    Keep your company up, and luck with your lamp designs!
