Carolyn is a dedicated image maker, juggling a law career and a family, but always making time for her art. Much of her work is based on childhood memories, rituals, nightmares, and fantasies and she uses her daughter as muse to create her surreal and dreamlike images. Her evocative photographs leave us suspended between the mercurial subconscious and reminiscence of childhood memories.
