Carol Wyss

Carol’s practice spans the expanded field of printmaking.

Carol’s practice spans the expanded field of printmaking; print, photography, drawing and sculpture create the components for her predominately paper based installations. She is on a concerted search for the structure of things – deconstructing existing and creating new discernible patterns. Recognizing patterns is crucial to humans, helping us understand and predict what is coming. The skeleton is the basic structure through which she examines our relationship to our surroundings and our temporal human existence. Bones are essential in reconstructing who we are and where we come from. Carol explores the hierarchies within our understanding of nature, focusing on humanity’s impact on and synergy with the planet we call home.

Having grown up in Liechtenstein, Carol now lives and works in London. Since graduating with an MFA from the Slade University College London, she has won several prizes including the John Ruskin Prize and the City & Guilds Print Prize.
