While based at home in the US, Carpenter served as Associate Professor of Art at Alfred University before refocusing her practice toward doctoral research at Northumbria University as a means to contextualize and disseminate an intersectional feminist and new materialist methodology as evidenced within her solo and collaborative performance work. Post-pandemic, Carpenter’s practice has expanded to include video and textiles, as related to her body- and performance-based works.
Carpenter regularly partners with Norwegian artist Terese Longva as Longva+Carpenter; their monograph, 10 Together, was released in 2022, and is currently shortlisted for the Best Publication Award at PQ2023.
She has been in Newcastle since 2016.
