Karen Mosbacher

Karen Mosbacher is a multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of embodiment, sound, and intergenerational resilience. Influenced by chromesthesia, she translates music, memory, and emotional resonance into large-scale visual form, bridging painting, photography, installation, performance, and narrative.

Her practice includes two evolving bodies of work. SŌ SÓ MĒ: The Science of the Sound of Music and Emotions explores the physics and felt experience of sound through expansive paintings reaching up to 6’ x 7’. Collateral BEAUTY, a multi-chapter series, examines silence, endurance, and communal restoration, tracing movement from psychological harm to embodied sovereignty.

Mosbacher’s paintings translating the musical compositions of Dr. Ofer Ben-Amots are archived in The National Library of Israel in Jerusalem. She was part of a Heartland Emmy®–winning team for the film I Paint Music, serving as writer, art director, on-screen artist, and curator of its musical score. She was also nominated for an Emmy Award for the script of Collateral BEAUTY: No More Silence. These recognitions reflect her interdisciplinary approach to image, sound, and narrative.

She is represented by JRB Art at The Elms in Oklahoma City, Platte Collections in Colorado Springs,

and in Europe with representation in Cannes and Florence, with additional exhibitions in London

and across the United States.

Mosbacher lives and works in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
