Born in San Diego, California, in 1960, Carole Seborovski received her BFA from the California College of the Arts in 1982. Desiring life in a culturally rich environment, Seborovski moved to NYC. And from 1982-84 she continued her studies at the New York Studio School, where she focused on drawing. After which time, she enrolled in the graduate program at Hunter College and, in 1987, earned her MFA degree in painting. In 2006, she enrolled in a ceramics class, where Seborovski began building sculptures with clay coils, opening a new avenue of creative expression for the artist to engage, adding to and expanding upon her existing practices of painting and drawing.
Since 1984, her work has been widely exhibited in galleries and museums both nationally and internationally, with solo shows at Galerie Karsten Greve in St. Moritz, Paris, Cologne, and Milan. Haines Gallery in San Francisco, Mitchell-Innes & Nash in New York City, Locks Gallery in Philadelphia, and John Berggruen Gallery in San Francisco, among others.
Her work is in the collection of many academic institutions, and her work has been included in group shows at the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, the Anderson Collection at Stanford University, Yale University Art Gallery, Princeton University Art Museum, Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College, Addison Gallery at the Phillips Academy, and The Weatherspoon Art Gallery at the University of North Carolina.
