Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Carol brings into her work a wealth of diversity which she explores as she adapts to the Australian way of life and land. With a strong connection to her natural environment, Carol continues to bring her surroundings into her work, as well as exploring themes of heritage and daily life.
