About Artist

Carolina Krieger

Carolina Krieger lives and works in Camboriú, SC, Brazil. She is a self-taught photographer working with photography, appropriated images and hand collage. You can see in her images small rituals of intensification with the mystery, which inhabits, surrounds and underlies us.
