Lives and works in Los Angeles, CA
Caro is a handcrafted ceramic studio based in Los Angeles, created by the ceramic artist and designer Carolina Cortella. Carolina, originally from Buenos Aires, after a BFA in Film Direction from Fundacion Universidad del Cine and a career in filmmaking, felt the urge to experiment with tangible materials, as a way to continue her storytelling. She focuses on creating organic pieces that blur the line between art and functional work, drawing influence from nature. Driven to create a sensory impact, her hand-built pieces are intended to react in their environment through light and space. Carolina's work has been featured in Artforum and exhibited in Los Angeles, Paris, and Buenos Aires.
