About
Louis Roth is a photographer, born in Berlin in 2001, where he studied at the Ostkreuzschule für Fotografie. There he defined his visual language, which is the result of an inherent calmness that has been with him since childhood, and a pronounced visual understanding. He repeatedly works on themes on the outside that reflect his inner self. He is interested in unexpected insights into different lifestyles, as well as the tension between reality and narrative inherent in photography.
His recent project fata morgana debuted at the group exhibition ACHTZEHN. The project has earned recognition at international photography awards, including the LUMA Rencontres Dummy Book Award and has been featured in ZEIT Magazin. Works have been accquired by the permanent collection of the Museum of Contemporary Photography Chicago as part of the Snider Prize.
