Caroline Cornelius is a UK based artist who has recently completed her postgraduate studies at The Royal Drawing School. Her work centres around the female form, the duality of ageing, and the fragility and fleetingness inherent in life, often reflecting on the complexity and beauty of maternal relationships. Caroline approaches her practice with a reverence for colour, saturation and texture. She paints from memory to imbue emotion, character and an abstract sense of place. These qualities result in artworks that interrogate the visibility and invisibility of women enslaved by societies expectations of them. Embodied with a poetic expression of colour and a sense of the cinematic, her artworks are portals to a place and time that is both familiar and foreign. Since the inception of her art practice Caroline has exhibited in the UK and Canada, most notably at The Royal Academy Summer Show 2021 and 2023. In 2022 she was accepted as an associate member of the Royal Watercolour Society in London. More recently Caroline completed a scholarship year devoted to the practice of drawing at the Royal Drawing School which culminated in an exhibition at Christies, London. Her work has been acquired by the Royal Collection and the Royal Watercolour Society Collection.
