Through her photographs Carlotta Guerra invites us on a visual and emotional journey that encourages us to explore the magic and the sorrows of life, from the simplest to the most significant moments of everyday existence.
With her project Like we could almost live forever, Carlotta Guerra (*1976) invites us on a visual and emotional journey. The photographs, taken in Italy and North America, draw on her family heritage and create a tapestry of personal memories, experiences, impressions, and emotions. Aware that our limited time in life makes our encounters precious and unique, Guerra collects photographic moments, which she arranges like tiny pieces of a vast puzzle into a narrative full of expressive and associative power. This collection encourages us to explore the magic and the sorrows of life, from the simplest to the most significant moments of everyday existence.Author Biography
