Artist statement
Caroline’s work aims to converse a poetic tempo of dramatic scenes using untraditional tools, a variety of surfaces in response to everyday environments. Her art is abstract and non-representational in style.
Eighty-two
Caroline collects used consumable materials, modifies them into deformed miniature sculptures and assembles them to resemble petrified corals using an all-white painted color. She draws her concern over pollution caused by manufactured goods and society’s low recycling awareness. Her sculpture piece named “Eighty-Two” is the total number of plastic bottles gathered and turned into a durable coral display. She invite people to consider plastic as an art medium and not garbage.
