Lucia Carroll

Lucia Carroll, documentarian and curator, is a photographer and interdisciplinary artist most recently based out of Providence, RI. She was was born in Bogota, Colombia and grew up on four different continents. Lucia returned to the states to attend Smith College, where she received her BA in Studio Art. Her work explores the curation of self and our own narratives through physical and digital objects and strives to give those objects a voice. Using both photography and other forms of documentation she creates structure and systems to present them in frank means while also revealing the stories behind them. Her most recent work investigates how regional and national identity is integrated into our urban environments and how histories of place and space, both official and unofficial, can re-activate a neighborhood, town, or city through its inhabitants.
