Caroline's current photographic work captures bold abstract images by focusing on bright colors and unusual patterns. However, her inspiration is ordinary subjects that would generally be considered unpleasant to the naked eye: rusting dumpsters, peeling trucks, aging store doors, crumbling walls.
She composes her photographs to transform the "unpleasant" into something aesthetically pleasing and eye-catching. Through her lens, the vibrant colors of these objects take on the appearance of an abstract painting.
Through Caroline's photographic eye, mundane objects become extraordinary.
