Bachelor in Fine Arts at National University of Colombia. My artistic journey has been enriched by various experiences, including being awarded the second prize at Premio Arte Jovén 2021 and showcasing my work at some incredible venues, including Nueveochenta Gallery and various film festivals around the world. My artistic practice goes around the exploration of archive material and found footage. I'm interested in experimenting with&nbsp; images using different techniques such as painting, engraving, drawing, and analog animation. Central to my work is the manipulation of archive-image and the gap between reality and fiction that this may depict. I have a keen interest in converging drawing and painting within my video works, blurring the lines between traditional and digital mediums in animations and video.&nbsp; Through deliberate gestures and interventions, I consciously engage in the process of image creation, seeking to blur some of the boundaries of representation and give texture to my works.

Sound design, mastering and recording Lukazs Romero Glass Percussion Lena Pöschko Film archive 16mm, Animation. Imaginary Landscape it’s a procesual project developed through months of conversations reflecting on video, painting and animation. In a pulse for a relational creation, this work ponders about an urge for the beauty of the abstract with small glimpses of reality and, likewise, a shared perception over the need to yearn ways within creation that appeal to paths of freedom, wether in creation or representation. ‘’Closing your eyes and leaving the city behind (…) Up on a hilltop you are looking back but the city it’s too far away. The windows seems as it would soak in the world and simultaneously putting out the world apart. After the moon comes up all shadows fade away and just the pond makes with all his struggle and illness. Diving into the countryside. Feeling Home. Feed some sparkling crystals through the moonshine, As the next day arrives you see some new land coming up and the ponds back mirroring the sky (…) It looks like the world is upside down and you trying to sort out your feelings. As the days go by you forgot to worry about your life in the city and it looks more like a painting you forgot to watch. You think to start a fire by cutting down the trees of your imagination. A cloud of smoke blinds your eyesight as you are standing in the woods. You rub your eyes to get the tears out. The sparkling colors just fade away as you open your eyes. It’s the home dark and you decide to get back into your dreams. As moon once again get in its journey over the night sky you try to keep some of its glance.’’ https://valentinarodriguezmorales.com/Fluid-Borders-in-the-Landscape Thu, 06 Mar 2025 12:19:34 +0000 Valentina Rodríguez Morales https://valentinarodriguezmorales.com/Fluid-Borders-in-the-Landscape Fluid Borders in the Landscape 2024 Sound design, mastering and recording Lukazs Romero Analog photography, Lomokino.
