You can say that Karl Addison is a citizen of the world since he was born in Denver, raised in Phoenix, lived in Los Angeles, moved to Seattle, and then to Berlin. Karl Addison is an American artist whose art and vision develops and progresses — from the blank slate to a pen, a paper, a t-shirt, a mural, an installation and to empty public space. He tries to stretch the viewer’s understanding and comprehension of the structures, spaces, and communities around us. His objective is to combine art with the existing environment, and thus create symmetry, harmony, balance and bring an otherwise colorless wall to life, while also inspiring the viewer to consider space, culture, and the larger world.
