whimsy in a heart.

I am loving the whimsy of Karen Lederer's installations. Perfect for a valentine week.

I love how she uses found mass produced items of saccharine love and sweetness to make fun and dynamic installations. They are so playful and sweet and yet a little tiny bit horrific.

I would love to fall upon a gallery filled with her collections, drawings, and sweet hearts.



Her work reminds me a bit of my friend Kim Hennessey- their work is actually quite different but how they approach their material and installation speak well to each other.
