Collage
Karyn Ann Janowski
[email protected]
Karyn is a painter of portraiture; mainly interested in dichotomy, paradoxical personalities–in
our own conflictual nature. “A bicycle accident reduced my artist efforts, for
a time, to clipping items from the Sunday newspaper, each week for approximately
one year I assembled a collage. These collages started as personal and directly pertained
to the accident. They progressed to encompass many events in my life as well as the
litany of disasters known as the ‘Sunday Paper.'” Karyn founded and directed
The Warehouse Studio for visual artists and musicians in 1985.

Ms. McKenna specializes in “Scrapbook Therapy.”
She is an abuse survivor and has MPD. Regarding the use of scrapbooks to heal, Ms.
McKenna says, “I first learned about scrapbook therapy about a week after my
first abuse memories and I knew I was MPD. The idea is to use art to allow your alters
or inside people/components to express themselves. … The project was described
as something to have to remember your alters when you integrate. But it was also
described as a useful way to get to know your alters. I had no idea just how expressive
my alters could be through pictures.”
