She served as an Associate Professor (undergraduate and master’s) for ten years in the School of Design at Universidad de Los Andes, Bogotá. She previously earned an M.F.A. in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute, New York, and a Specialist Degree in Design and Television Production from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá. Carolina has a B.A. with a focus on Electronic Media and Time Arts from Universidad de Los Andes, Bogotá. Carolina’s artwork ranges from analog and digital drawings to sculptural assemblages, and installations. Her artwork focuses on the dichotomy of life and death. Enchanted by Victorian collections of curiosities and the immortality of biological specimens, she developed an interest in working in the fields of nonhuman animals, their mortality, and conservation. Carolina’s current art practice and research connect art, education, and the natural sciences regarding human–nonhuman animal relationships. Her pedagogical and artistic productions have received recognition through collective and individual presentations and exhibitions. Currently, her work is part of Sketch Gallery. In addition, she has developed illustration, editorial, and graphic design projects for local and international agencies and institutions.
