Linda Carrara's 'Passeggiata (verso sud)' at Platea in Lodi

exhibition · 2026-04-26

Linda Carrara (Bergamo, 1984) presents 'Passeggiata (verso sud)' at Platea in Lodi, a show that merges her practice with the Adda river landscape. The exhibition features a triptych of acrylic works from 2025, created through a frottage technique along the riverbanks. Curator Gaspare Luigi Marcone draws a parallel to Leonardo da Vinci's drawing 'Il traghetto tra Vaprio e Canonica' (1509–1511), which depicts the Adda with a ferry. Carrara's paintings capture the river's essence through interaction with light, humidity, and season, treating the landscape as co-creator. The title references walking art, emphasizing bodily engagement with the environment. The works oscillate between micro and macro views, evoking both mud and distant planets. Carrara, who works in Villa d'Adda, has known the river since childhood. The show runs until March 12, 2026, at Platea's window-space in Lodi.
