"Carol Cole combines ordinary objects in artful ways...through her skill and vision, junk is transformed, becoming almost invisible in its new configurations.  The eye of the viewer notices first the bold forms, varied textures, and rich colors of her sculptures, and only after close looking discerns the map pins, bottle caps, wooden spoons, hairbrushes, or sprinkler can heads that enliven the surface."
