Director
Caroline Voagen Nelson is a New York-based artist and filmmaker working in mixed media, animation, and installation. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and printed in publications nationally and internationally, most recently at Sotheby’s Institute of Art. Nelson’s practice has evolved from deconstructing environments and history in photomontage to creating narratives in animation. She researches historical archives to create landscapes inspired by the past and spaces in transition. She received her undergraduate degree at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and recently received her MFA in animation at the Department of Digital Arts at Pratt Institute.
