Orange T-Shirt Painting

Incorporating painting, drawing, installation and time based work Caroline Wright's practice explores identity, loss, and the body. She sometimes works site specifically responding to locations as varied as cities, beaches, festivals and public buildings. Wright's paintings are intuitively produced, drawing on memories of people encountered in daily life coupled with her own imagined characters. Her distinctive colour palette references Le Corbusier's Architectural Polychromy, a collection of colour combinations devised for their harmonic, spatial and psychological effects. Wright is currently undertaking PhD research at the Royal College of Art, and is Programme Leader for post- and undergraduate Fine Art at The Open College of the Arts. She exhibits nationally and internationally and has been in receipt of several awards, grants and prizes.
