Instructor - Caroline Fraser

photographer and book artist

Caroline Fraser

Caroline Fraser is a photographer and book artist based in Rye, East Sussex, UK. Caroline’s abstract and intimate landscape photography arises from her passion for the natural world, and is a means to convey the fragility and transience of life and the world that we live in. Her art practice values minimalism and restraint to create a feeling of calm and also to express concern for the future of natural environments. Caroline uses multiple exposure photography and layers to create visual interest and deeper meaning. Artist books and writing are important components of her work, including an irreverent blog ‘An Ordinary Life’. She has published a number of limited edition hand-made artist books and has exhibited in London, Rye, Scotland and Japan. Studio visits are welcome at Rye Creative Centre.
