Kara Rainey

I love making art. I love taking the world's trash and turning it into something unrecognizable, beautiful, elegant, valuable.

What is The People's Artist?

Learn More
What is your favorite type of art to create?

Art that viewers can connect with and experience. Art that allows them to have their own journey within the work itself. I am not here to tell you what to see, rather you are here to tell me what you see.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in the discarded, the refuse, the items and things that noone wants. I am inspired by time and decay and the melancholy beauty of life itself.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would travel to an area or country that has experienced hardship and utilize the waste and debris to create work that screams rebirth and renewal.
