In this short documentary film, Caroline Walker contextualises her most recent body of work, The Holiday Park, on show at GRIMM, New York, NY (US) March 28 – May 3, 2025.
The Holiday Park (2025) follows Scottish artist Caroline Walker as she makes a series of new paintings based on the activity-led, family friendly holiday park as a setting. Reflecting on a family break at one such resort in 2023, the film captures Walker's adoption of a more autobiographical approach to image-making. Highlighting the relationship between work and leisure, the film traces her enduring preoccupation with the rarely seen sites of women’s affective labour synonymous with her practice.
