Biography 

Каролайн Смит

Ролилась 22 октября 1960, в городе Amersfoort, Нидерланды

Образование:

Скульптуры Каролайн Смит имеют невероятную силу обольщения. Вместе с тем, это болезненное обнажение сущности, грубое насилие, доводящее до истощения. Каролайн Смит удается выхватить и воплотить тот момент,  когда смерть становится вечностью, жизнь и красота растворяются в эйфории.
