Carolina Baldoma
Bio
Carolina Baldomá is an artist specialized in photography who lives and produces her work immersed in her natural environment, in the Argentinian Pampas.
She is engaged in long-term experimental photography projects, and her research focuses on the relationship between nature and the human being, exploring the idea of coexistence and synchronicity between them. In recent years, her projects have centered on the alchemical experimentation of various photographic mediums, revisiting the history of photography in an empirical way. In her practice, nature is poetically imprinted both in the content and in the medium, becoming both object and subject. Her works range from experimental pictorial portraits of women undergoing metamorphosis and in deep connection with nature, to impossible landscapes that prompt the viewer to rethink our relationship with the natural world.
In 2023 she was preselected for the Fresh contest by Klompching Gallery in New York and she was a finalist for the Lens School Scholarship in Madrid. She received mentions in international competitions such as Emerging Talents Awards 2024 and 2023, Critics Choice 2024, 2023, and 2022, and Portrait Awards 2023 by Lensculture.
She has held various solo exhibitions in Argentina and Uruguay and has participated in group shows in New York, Paris, Athens, Berlin, Vermont, and Melbourne. Her projects have been published in photobooks, and in various specialized photography publications such as Arte On Line, Femgrafía (Mexico), Fotógrafas en el Mundo, and Fotoargenta.
She is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Curatorial Studies of Contemporary Art in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Statement
In recent years, her projects have focused on alchemical experimentation with various photographic media, revisiting the history of photography in an empirical way. In her practice, nature is poetically imprinted on both the content and the support, it is both object and subject. Her works range from experimental and painterly portraits of women in full metamorphosis and in deep connection with nature, to impossible landscapes that urge the viewer to rethink our relationship with the natural world.
