"Caroline Hendry works between painting and drawing, creating pictures in ink and wash which explore a nostalgia for the early days of the internet."- Susan Mansfield
My practice is currently interested in the personal experience of digital nostalgia and its co-relation to the domestic. When we think of the internet it is perceived as an overstimulating landscape of algorithms and labyrinths. However, when many think back to their childhood spent online it is viewed with a delicate softness that is not visible to the outside viewer. I am interested in conveying this softness through water-based mediums, building up the layers to achieve glimpses of my past. I often feel as if I am "drawing with paint", as my process is tonal and built up with layers, a common attribute of drawing. A large part of my practice is the collecting of physical and digital objects, which I incorporate into my work. The organisation and curation of these objects is a pivotal part to my practice and influences my compositions and subject matter.
