I am Carolin, an artist specialising in early experimental photographic, spectral, and chemical practices of the nineteenth century. I completed my PhD this year, reworking the photographic, spectral, and chemical experiments by the English scientist John F. W. Herschel (1792-1871) centred on plant-based colours at the Photographic History Research Centre at De Montfort University, Leicester (UK). The project was funded by the Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds and the Midlands-4-Cities doctoral award, and supervised by Prof. Kelley Wilder and Prof. Tim Fulford.

Together with artist Dico Kruijsse, I run the project ‘under the same sun’: a research into the early photographic blueprint technique, light in scale 1:1, and the perception of space and time, turning a building into an analogue recording device.
