About

Matthew Carroll is a photographer based in Indiana. He grew up living in both Latin America and in the UK before his family moved to the United States when he was fourteen. Over the last decade, he has also spent a significant amount of time in Southeast China. These formative life experiences engendered a keen interest in people, their culture, and their constructed surroundings. Through portraiture and landscapes, his work focuses on the daily happenstances of everyday life. He is currently working on long-term projects in the American Midwest and in Shenzhen, China.
