Caroline Magerl verkent de wereld door middel van kunst en illustratie. Haar vormende jaren, doorgebracht met zeilen langs de Australische kust, en haar latere reizen hebben een uniek perspectief gevormd dat weerspiegeld wordt in haar werk. Magerl richt zich op visueel verhalen vertellen, waarbij haar illustraties worden erkend voor hun gedetailleerde uitvoering en emotionele diepgang. Haar artistieke praktijk, die schilderen en grafiek omvat, is internationaal tentoongesteld.
