Carlotta Roda was born in 1999 in Erba, in the province of Como. After graduating from linguistic high school, she decided to study at the IED in Milan and graduated in photography. With the camera she feels the need to search for meanings beyond evidence and she uses photography to evoke imaginary realities, as an infinite universe of research. Her intent is to put man before himself to ask questions about his own existence. The creation of astronomical shots and nocturnal urban scenarios allows this reflection: the viewer sees on the one hand the greatness that the Universe shows us and on the other notices the smallness of our daily life in the buildings, our home. A philosopher who influenced her work is certainly Blaise Pascal, who reflected on the infinitely large and infinitely small of the individual. The individual rediscovers himself as "dividual", he is amazed in front of the big and in front of the small because he is nothing in front of the infinite and he is an all in comparison to nothing. She has participated in several photographic competitions and thanks to these she has had the opportunity to hold collective exhibitions. In 2023 she won the “Empire State Building Photo Contest 2023” prize, she won four competitions at the “Glasgow Gallery of Photography” gallery and in the same year she received a certificate of artistic merit from the “Luxembourg Art Prize” competition. Her photographs have been exhibited both nationally, such as Milan, Lodi and Jesi, and internationally, such as Glasgow, Minneapolis and New York.
