biography
In my practice I move across photography, writing and creative archival research processes to work cross-historically, re-touching the archive, to recover and repair marginalised histories. In 2024 I completed my practice-led PhD project at Royal College of Art, where I researched the role of gender and class in early Scottish photography.
For 2024/2025 Caroline was the Fedwa Malti-Douglas Fellow, at the American Philosophical Society’s Library & Museum in Philadelphia. In 2025/2026 she is the Short-Term Fellow at the Science History Institute, Philadelphia and will be a Research Fellow at the Consortium for History of Science, Technology and Medicine.
