Bio

Carolina Baldomá is a visual artist who lives and works in the Argentine Pampas. Her practice explores the relationship between humans and nature, grounded in the concepts of coexistence and synchronicity. It moves across photography, video, and process-based image-making, developed through site-specific and performative approaches where visual production emerges through direct interaction with the landscape.

Her practice unfolds in two complementary lines. The first explores the landscape through 19th-century photographic techniques, including cyanotype, anthotype, and chlorophyll prints, alongside experimental image-based processes. In this context, nature operates as an active agent within the work. The landscape is not only represented but reconstructed through co-creation with the natural surroundings, where time, matter, and territory converge.

This research is informed by her Master’s thesis for her degree in Contemporary Art Curatorship at ESEADE, focused on 19th-century British women photographers and their engagement with botanical sciences. Working at the intersection of science, art, and nature, they were oriented toward discovering, naming, and classifying the natural world. Building on this legacy, her work proposes a contemporary reading that shifts the taxonomic paradigm toward an ethics of care and a situated relationship with the natural environment.

The second line addresses the relationship between female life cycles and natural cycles, based on liminal experiences and processes of transformation in young women deeply connected to the earth, in dialogue with Latin American magical realism.

She is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Contemporary Photography at LENS School of Visual Arts (Madrid, Spain), supported by a scholarship.

Her work has been exhibited in institutions and venues in Argentina, including Centro Cultural Rojas, Fundación Cazadores, and MUBAL Museum of Fine Arts. Internationally, it has been presented at The Griffin Museum of Photography (Massachusetts, USA), Soho Photo Gallery (New York, USA), PhotoPlace Gallery (Vermont, USA), Amanda Smith Gallery (Texas, USA), The Photographer’s Eye Collective (California, USA), and Museo Arte al Límite (Panquehue, Chile). She has also participated in international fairs such as Photo London (London, UK) and Pinta BAphoto (Buenos Aires, Argentina).

In 2026, she was a finalist for the LensCulture Art Photography Award (USA), shortlisted for the 167th International Photography Exhibition of the Royal Photographic Society (Bristol, UK), and for the Athens Photo Festival (Athens, Greece). In the same year, she received Third Prize and a Jury Mention in the Water competition at the New York Center for Photographic Art (New York, USA), and a mention at the Pangue Video Festival by Building Bridges Foundation (Los Angeles, USA).

In 2025, she received a Special Jury Mention at the 112th National Visual Arts Salon at Palais de Glace (Buenos Aires, Argentina) and was a finalist for the Fresh Photo Award at Klompching Gallery (New York, USA).

She has also received distinctions from LensCulture (USA), Lenscratch (USA), and Femgrafía (Mexico), among other international recognitions.

Deeply rooted in sensitive observation and immersive engagement with the territory, her practice reflects on the relationship between human beings and nature, understanding the creative act as a process of co-creation with the natural environment.
