Caroline Rothwell

Rothwell's art works are mainly three dimensional art objects including sculptures and installations, but she her works also include more "flat" works including water colour paintings and drawings. Rothwell utilises both commonly and uncommonly used materials in her artworks.

Thematically, Rothwell's work focuses on human's interaction with the natural world. Her works often depict human figures as well as natural elements such as a wide range of animals such as horses, dogs, birds, mice, and plant subjects such as weeds, trees, flowers. Rothwell's work often depicts these forms in a somewhat abstract style with extra appendages and her figures are often mid-action and lively.

In 2003, Rothwell worked on the redevelopment of the Mount Albert War Memorial Reserve precinct in Auckland, New Zealand. She supplied three commissioned works: Tree, Harakeke Balustrade and Scoria Wall.^[4]

Her work appeared in Part 2 of the Know My Name exhibition of Australian women artists 2021-22 at the National Gallery of Australia.^[5]
