Carol Wax

Carol Wax’s engravings, drawings, and paintings depict ordinary objects as icons with inner lives and symbolic subtexts. Using dramatic lighting effects and exaggerated perspectives, her surreal renderings suggest psychological narratives that consider the humor and menace in our material possessions and how they reflect our humanity.

Carol is author of The Mezzotint: History and Technique, and her award-winning prints are in numerous museum collections.
