Carole Chaloupka

Carole Chaloupka received her Master of Fine Arts at Toronto’s OCAD University and her BA (Hons) at Sunderland University in her native North East England.

Carole specializes in evocative portraiture and figurative sculpture that captures fleeting moments of inner reflection that are both deeply private, and vastly universal.

Her sensitive, expressive work explores the embodied experience of having memories, thoughts, emotions and intuition contained within our bodies, and seeks to give form to these invisible and difficult-to-articulate feelings and sensations.

Themes within Carole’s work include vulnerability, meaning-making and our achingly bittersweet knowledge of the impermanence of embodied, mortal life.
