ZieherSmith returned to the Atlanta Art Fair in 2025 with a solo presentation of photographic works by Caroline Allison including from her Book of Hours series and the exhibition debut of her new series of composite landscapes. Her piece Book of Hours (Nones) was the recipient of the fair’s inaugural Baletine Art Prize, juried by Mark Bell, Ph.D. a partner at Balentine, Atlanta Art Fair Artistic Director Nato Thompson, and independent curator Lauren Jackson Harris.

The work’s title, Book of Hours (Nones)​, referring to the Latin name for the time of day that this image was captured (3 pm). About her work, Allison has stated "In spending countless quiet hours in the landscape, I often returned to a thought I had as a child, that there is not one place on this wide earth that has not been touched or trodden upon or transformed by humankind. And what does it mean for us to be in this moment where our landscape is changing and passing because of our actions.”

The artist was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia and now resides in Nashville, Tennessee . She received her BA from the University of the South and her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In 2019, the artist re-emerged with a newly developed practice of innovative photography techniques as a means to explore ideas of nature and our human relationship to time. Drawing on sources from medieval texts to recent discoveries about the fabric of space, Allison works with a large format camera and film to document the sky, the stars, and the landscape around her.
