ABOUT PATTY CARROLL

Patty Carroll is a prolific Chicago-based photographer known for her staged, colorful tableaux exploring identity, domestic life, and excess, since the 1970’s. Her most recent project, “Anonymous Women”, a 4-part series of studio installations made for the camera, addresses women and their complicated relationships with domesticity. By camouflaging the figure in drapery and/or domestic objects, Carroll creates a dark and humorous game of hide-and-seek between her viewers and the Anonymous Woman.
