In the research project Autobiography as Research, Valentina Stepanova further challenges her transdisciplinary documentary practice. More specifically, she aims to place a scanner over a reservoir of memories, stories, objects, photographs, and audiovisual material - not only as personal archaeology but also as a mirror for broader societal shifts. How does an individual memory echo within the larger movements of history and politics? What forms can autobiographical storytelling take today, in a world where collective memory and disinformation increasingly collide? How does a personal story relate to the normalization of violence, the circulation of ideologies, and the mechanisms of forgetting? By zooming in and out - between the particular and the systemic - this research aims to penetrate the fault lines of our time.
