Biggest Artistic Inspiration The Hudson River is my biggest artistic inspiration. It isn't just the incredible light in this region. It's the history as well. It's rich for imagery, stories to create with and in our present day, is a microcosm for bigger global implications in the environment.
 
Why Did You Become An Artist I could not help it. I have known since I was 4.

EDUCATION:

CARLA GOLDBERG is originally from Palm Springs, California. She’s a So Cal Desert Rat who has called the Hudson Valley home since 1990. She graduated with honors from the University of Redlands, CA. and earned her MFA from MICA-Mount Royal Graduate School of Art in Baltimore, MD. She is a current member of bau gallery (Beacon Artists Union), a contributing member of the Beacon Art Salon and a council member of the international coalition of artists known as Mirca Art Group. She also started Insight Gallery in Cold Spring, New York for the summer of 2009 that focused on artists of the Hudson Region. Additionally she has created large group shows and projects. Among these include the Centennial Celebration for the University of Redlands covering 8 decades of living alumni artists and the “Freedom & Art project” which still raises funds for Amnesty International in support of Nobel Peace Prize winner, Aung San Suu Kyi of Burma. The project received coverage from the BBC Radio Free Asia and many other international news entities.

It is the Hudson’s imagery, history, lore and river science that inspires and informs Carla's art. Her explorations into textures through non-traditional techniques, the play of light seen behind transparent surfaces and references to water are recurring themes. Her layering of materials alludes to an evolution of events as if they are being seen in the context of archeology or discovery in watery depths and cracked earth. Carla sees her work as mapping the unseen. Her passion for the Hudson River has spurred her to use art to educate the public about the ecosystem and science of the Hudson River through her imagery.

Her work has been featured in solo and group shows nationally and internationally in galleries, universities and museums. Her work can be found in public spaces and corporate collections.
