Carolyn Thompson is a London based visual artist and writer. She works predominately with found text and images, modifying, manipulating, reconstructing and re-writing existing material, in order to create new fictitious narrative adaptations, with origins based in reality, or the original. Using preconceptions and our fundamental conviction in our ability to perceive, memorise, interpret and communicate fluidly, she intends to make distinctions between authenticity and fabrication ambiguous and investigates our frequent failure to define language as a stable and adequate entity. Her work takes form as text installations, artistﾒs books, drawings and films in which intimacy, sincerity and serendipity play major roles.
