About

Valeria Zeballos Doubinko is a New York-based artist whose practice examines belonging, place, and cultural inheritance through painting and constructed landscapes. Born to a Bolivian father and Belarusian mother and raised between Bolivia, Geneva, and Washington, DC, she draws on experiences of moving between places and cultural contexts to consider how a sense of self and home is formed.

Her first series, Altiplano, considers the Bolivian Altiplano as both physical landscape and site of memory. Rooted in her emotional connection to the region, the paintings inhabit the space between the real and the surreal, depicting places that are at once familiar and otherworldly.

This interest in place and belonging continues in Patria Imaginada, a sculptural project centered on the construction of an imagined homeland. Translucent layers representing different times and places overlap to form a composite landscape, a reality that exists only in the intersection of many fragments.

At the center of her practice is a question: How can many identities and selves exist at once? And how do they morph and transform through time and across geographies?
