Carly received her MA in sculpture from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT University) She works largely with cardboard, paper and fabric. Her installations involve a laborious process that mimics an efficiency-driven workplace environment. Her past show titled SKWOT (2005) saw her reconstruct piles of `corporate junk` that were left behind in an abandoned building.
