ABOUT

Caroline Space Wong is a photographer and operational creative who finds excitement and sentiment in the smallest things. Her appetite for color, design, and nature has always been a source for her creative, academic, and professional pursuits. Currently, Caroline serves as art director for PBS Digital Studios’ channels and shows, including the Daytime Emmy Winning, Prideland. But her most important role with PBS is working with stations to help realize their artistic vision while setting them up for success in the digital media space.

She began her career working at The Corcoran Gallery of Art and Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, committed to creating access and artistic understanding for all people. Caroline has curated multiple exhibitions including David Levinthal: War Games at The Corcoran Gallery of Art. She also created her documentary multimedia project, Forest of Lorien, which explores a mid-century modern community outside of Washington, D.C., where residents are fully immersed in design, nature, and nostalgia—a pillar of much of Caroline’s work. Apart from her independent projects, she has worked with the Washington Post and United States Diplomacy Project. 


Caroline holds a Master of Arts in New Media Photojournalism from The George Washington University. Caroline graduated from the Corcoran College of Art + Design with a Bachelor of Arts in Art Studies: Modern Art & Museum Culture.


Outside of work, you can find Caroline expanding her ongoing photographic journey in the #BrownSignProject, where she travels to capture beauty in random and often unseen parts of the U.S. Additionally, she is exploring the changes that come from motherhood and the shift when adult children become responsible for upholding family lineage, in a new body of work called, The Sheets No Longer Smell Like Home. Currently, Caroline lives in Washington, D.C. with her husband and son, Harry.
