Open Studio with Valeria Cherchi | FUTURES Hub

Join us for an exclusive open studio with visual artist Valeria Cherchi, our newest resident at the FUTURES Hub.

Valeria will present her ongoing project RE:Birth. Through a multimedia and non-linear approach, she investigates obstetric and gynecological violence—a form of abuse that has remained hidden for a long time and continues to be largely ignored. RE:Birth invites the viewer to reflect on critical but often invisible issues, such as trauma, bodily autonomy, and the dynamics of power, offering a profound and multi-layered exploration of obstetric and gynecological violence.

About Valeria:

Valeria Cherchi (b.1986) is an artist and educator from Sardinia, Italy, currently based in Milan. Her non-linear practice focuses on the meaning of the ‘unspoken’, with a particular interest in using images and words to shed light on little known stories about lack of social justice. By weaving together her photography, journal of on-site research, archival material and official narratives, Cherchi creates multivocal chronicles that exposes the contradictions of certain social and political phenomenons before their removal from historical consciousness.

We look forward to seeing you there!
