Karen Williamson
Picture
Karen is a self-taught artist with a background in nursing. 
Through her work as textile artist and eco dyer, Karen Williamson of Nuku finds a spiritual connection to the land and its changing seasons. Using only natural resources, foraged from the local Kaipara landscape, Karen infuses prints of leaves, petals, seeds and bark into natural fibres to create a unique range of scarves, clothing and gifts. The name Nuku comes from te reo Māori, meaning earth. Karen lives in rural Kaiwaka and is building a sustainable lifestyle on a half-acre section with her husband. Advocacy for the environment is integral to her process, sharing her passion for zero waste and conservation by teaching workshops to adults and children on natural dyeing and eco print from her home studio. She has also taught and exhibited at several arts paces including Estuary Arts in Orewa and Lakehouse Artspace in Takapuna.
