Carolyn Carpio
Caroline is a Tiwa speaking member of the Isleta Pueblo. Isleta
is located 13 miles south of Albuquerque, New Mexico.
In 1996, Carpio graduated from the University of New Mexico with a
BA in Fine Arts. She also studied at the Institute of American
Indian Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Caroline has been a potter for more than 29 years and has been
making bronze sculptures for the past 17 years. Her work pays
homage to the Creator for life and gives her the opportunity to
create something beautiful from the Mother Earth from which we all
came.
Caroline finds inspiration from her work in the traditions of her
people, in the beauty of her surroundings and from Mother Earth.
She started out making pottery using the traditional methods of her
people.
Caroline continues to study and grow her ability to do sculptural
form. This process has led her to making limited edition bronze
castings of great beauty and power.
In 2000 Caroline was named a Fellowship recipient by the
Southwestern Association for Indian Art.
Caroline was invited to be an artist in residence for the Takeo
Region International Art & Cultural Exhanged Program in Japan
in 2001.
She has received numerous other awards and recognitions.
