with and for the benefit of the environment and communities

ARTIST STATEMENT
Carolyns' practice focuses on contemporary society and ethics regarding single-use wastage in the packaging industry.
Her body of work critically questions the relationship between humans and the environment in repurposing found material such as single-use plastics. Her work has examined concepts of consumerism waste and environmental degradation.
Through her artist residencies and inspired by the freedom instilled in artists from the Arte Povera and Art Brut movements from around the world her creations of costumes and large-scale installations incorporate found materials often referencing and
encouraging public sustainability mindedness and action.
As finalist her artwork has been exhibited in art prizes and festivals in Australia and internationally.
In 2017 she was invited to create an installation for the opening of the French film festival and the Bastille Day festival.
In 2018 following an artist residency at the Australian Tapestry Workshop, her Op-shop up-cycled fashion collection was the inspiration behind the RENEW Runway with Yarra Youth Services for the Virgin Australia Melbourne Fashion Festival.
In 2019, for ClimArte (Art + Climate = Change) , she curated the exhibition BLEACHED at the Alliance Française de Melbourne. Within this exhibition she collaborated with Gabrielle Leah New on a project to bring awareness to the environmental impact
which triggers coral bleaching around the world.
In 2020 during their collaboration at the Yarra Sculpture Gallery Winter artist residency, Carolyn and Gabrielle developed a
new video and installation based project, reflecting on climate change by bringing together issues
of last summer bushfires and the fossil fuel industry.
In 2022 a few exhibitions and an AiR at Testing grounds.
In 2023 is a recipient of the Billilla artist in residence program.

2021:2 in Algarve-Portugal & 1 in Darwin-NT
2022:Testing Grounds-Melbourne
This time away permitted the realisation of many artworks which will be on display during 2022
