Chaitanya Joti Museum
Puttaparthy, India
At the request of devotees of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Karen
was asked to design the entrance corridor to the Five Elements Creation
Exhibit located inside the new Chaitanya Joti Museum. Since the
exhibit was to be visited largely by children, she chose to use
animals as symbolic subject and painted ten murals on canvas at
her studio in Denver. Gary Lloyd offered his time and the use of
his backdrop studio in Los Angeles to help Karen paint a black light
rendition of outer space for the ceiling of the Creation Theater.
After all the paintings were finished, the canvases were trimmed,
rolled, and placed inside sauna tubes for transport to India. Upon
arrival, they were pasted onto the exhibit's ceilings. After three
trips to Puttaparthy, and upon reflection, Karen considers this
experience as one of the most transformational in her life.
