For her prolific artistry, the Concordia graduate, MFA 80, has received a Governor General’s Award in Visual and Media Arts from the Canada Council for the Arts (CCA) — and she isn’t the only alumna to be honored.
Painter Carol Wainio, MFA 85, will receive the distinct gold medallion, too, at a ceremony to take place in the nation’s capital on March 26.
“I always wanted to slow down the moment by taking a picture,” says Grauerholz, originally from Hamburg, Germany. “I slow down the moment and create a space that can be filled.”
