Caroline Burraway

A recent graduate of St. Martin's School of Art, London (2006), Caroline Burraway has since collaborated with a number of charities and hospitals to produce a body of work which confronts the viewer with stark images of people in society we have become unwilling to see. Derived from film footage she produced of terminally ill patients, seemingly in the last gasp of life, her huge charcoal drawings are handled with extraordinary aplomb through her technical mastery of the medium. Her avoidance of the use of aesthetics as much as her selection of subject matter goes to produce imagery that is stark, oppressive but highly potent and charged.
