Caroline Teal is an artist based in Murphy, North Carolina, who earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Texas State University in San Marcos, with a focus on photography and printmaking. Now working in stained glass, Caroline explores the intersection of these mediums, seeking ways to blend the tactile, hands-on approach of craft with the conceptual framework of fine art. Her work reflects a deep interest in the stories of craft makers, investigating how their practices contribute to the larger dialogue of art history.
