Guerrero rose to fame in 2016 after
Solange Knowles, discovered Guerrero's photography on her
Instagram page and hired her to photograph the cover for
A Seat at the Table and

Emilia Clarke, and
Rupi Kaur. She has also worked with brands and labels such as
Dior,
Nike,
Paloma Wool,
Givenchy,
Mugler, and
Helmut Lang. At
Art Basel in 2019, Guerrero staged a performance emulating an orgy including 30 people in collaboration with
Desigual. The performance was well-received. In 2021, her photo series
Mujeres negras (Black Women) was exhibited at the
National Art Museum of Catalonia. The pieces, which reflect on
racism in Spain, feature Black models posed among marble sculptures at an art gallery. Proceeds were donated to refugee and immigrant women affected by structural racism. That year, she also published her first book,
Tengo un Dragón Dentro del Corazón: la fotografía de Carlota Guerrero (I Have a Dragon Inside My Heart: Photography by Carlota Guerrero) with Prestel. == References ==
