When I don’t know where I stand

—
In a time when familiar landmarks blur, Valentina explores disorientation not as a state of confusion but as a field of experimentation. When I don’t know where I stand questions uncertainty, the loss of reference points, and how our perception of space and language shapes identity.

Through installations, video, and sound compositions, she plays with the tension between movement and stillness, transparency and opacity, the visible and the unseen. Her works do not provide answers; instead, they open spaces of ambiguity, where memory, wandering, and the perspectives of others continually reshape our sense of reality.

The gaze wavers, meets obstacles, filters through layers, and fragments. Space is never fixed—it shifts with angle, distance, light, and the presence of other viewpoints. Valentina unsettles the idea of a stable, singular perspective, turning vision into a fluid experience, a precarious balance between what is revealed and what escapes us.

In this unstable universe, every perspective is temporary, as fleeting as daylight, changing with each moment. What if no longer knowing where we stand became a way of existing differently?
