Bacchus et Ariadne, 2024, marble, 80x100cm (detail)

Caroline Williams (b. Paris) is a sculptor working in stone, plaster, and bronze. Her works appear as dreamlike images in which fiction and reality meet, with time and memory always playing key roles. By focusing on both technique and materiality, she seduces the viewer into a world of ongoing equilibrium, where the invisibility of air is depicted through movement. Applying an often metaphorical language, she seeks to create compositions or settings that generate tranquil and beautiful artworks. 

Caroline developed a painting practice while working as a toy designer, acquiring perspective, construction skills and an interest in colour theory. She then moved into ceramics while living in Hong Kong, taking up two residencies in Jingdazhen, developing her understanding of shape, volume and space. This body of knowledge and skill informed her eventual move into sculpture, and her being awarded a distinction from the Graduate Diploma at City and Guilds.
