Alexa Karrenbauer: Life is Full, I am Full of Life

“Life is Full, I Am Full of Life” is a reflection of who I am—both as an artist and an individual. It draws from the diverse aspects of my life, including my experience growing up with both Vietnamese and American influences. The past few years have been a period of transformative personal growth, marked especially by travels to Italy, Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, and beyond. Each of these experiences has deepened my understanding of what I hold dear. This collection is the result of that exploration—capturing an ongoing reflection of a self in evolution and the eternal journey. This collection shapes a living space that speaks to the soul of the artist—a traveler who treasures the small finds gathered along the way, embraces the unconventional, and seeks a sanctuary for solace, reflection, and creativity. By blending artisanal techniques, intricate illustrations, rich colors, vintage accents, and personal narratives woven into every piece, this collection encapsulates a journey that is deeply personal and ever-evolving.
