Background

Carol Ann Carter earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Herron School of Art at the Indiana University in 1970.[3] After completing her Bachelor's she was taken on as artist-in-residence at her alma mater, Shortridge High School in Indianapolis. The program was funded by the PTA Fine Arts Committee and the Indiana State Arts Commission and was meant to inspire artistic expression and confidence in students who were not already interested in the arts.[4] Carter then completed her Masters of Fine Arts from the University of Notre Dame in 1974.[3]

Art influence and style

In her early years, Carter was focused on intaglio printmaking and then transitioned into textile work in 1984 after she traveled to Nigeria on a Lilly Endowment to study traditional men's embroidery and weaving.[3] This trip solidified her interest in examining culture and gender through textile work.[5] Carter's recent works are multimedia, digital and video based.
