Carolina Dutca and Valentin Sidorenko are two artists. They work with photography, documentary films and text.
Since 2019 the artist duo Carolina Dutca (*1995, Bender, MD) and Valentin Sidorenko (*1995,Gornyak, RUS) live and work in Moldova. Dutca studied art and documentary
photography at the Fotografika Academy (St. Petersburg). Sidorenko studied animation in Russian State University of Cinematography (Moscow) and graduated from the Fotografika Academy (St. Petersburg).
Carolina likes to experiment and to walk on the edge of the genre. The beauty of creative process is the main thing in her works. Valentin adores digging through the discovered archives and plays the detective. He scans for interesting people in the streets and writes his dreams down.
In their works they create a sacral world. They observe the disruptions in the usual order of events where the distinctions between good and evil, life and death, are sometimes blurred. In this torn world, they try to make connections through art.
They took part in international festivals and exhibitions at the Sharjah Art Foundation (United Arab Emirates), Fondation François Schneider (France), The National Museum of Art of Moldova (Moldova), Golubitskoe Art Foundation (Russia), Manuel Rivera-Ortiz Foundation Les Rencontres d'Arles (France), National Taras Shevchenko Museum (Ukraine), Ural Industrial Biennial of Contemporary Art (Russia) etc.
Winners of Contemporary Talents 10th Fondation François Schneider (France), Contemporary Photography Funding The Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung Foundation (Germany), Prix Les Nuits Photo Freelens (France) etc.

The World is Overflowing with Either Rubbish or Our Memories
14 April – 13 June 2021
curated by Varvara Busova
RussiaToday everyone is talking about upcycling, which is rooted in secondary use and associated with the creative transformation of unnecessary objects into art (e.g. swan sculptures made of tyres, rugs weaved from candy wrappers, etc.). As part of the upcoming exhibition, we have invited artists to reflect on the local archaeological context of ancient upcycling and reuse from the ritual, economic and status standpoint. Because of the wide response of musicians, sculptors and performance artists, this scientific art exhibition has acquired additional narratives and subplots.

The Darkroom Rumour
Transposed into a film, photography becomes matter, an instantaneous memory, malleable and stretchable to infinity; manipulating this photographic memory means understanding where it comes from and what it does. Valentin Sidorenko perfectly and simply illustrates this reflection by projecting himself into his own photographic and family memory, inviting us to question our own family chain of transmission.

The EEP Magazine is the first photography journal dedicated solely to the little known art and photography scenes of Eastern Europe. Its focus lies in uncovering the hidden nuances, dialogues and contrasts in the works of emerging and established Eastern European visual artists and photographers. We explore the absurdity of the Eastern European experience as endured by generations of artists who continuously have reflected on issues related to abrupt societal changes, war, migration and complex family history juxtaposed against the backdrop of mutually exclusive cultural legacies and political systems.

The participants were asked to rethink the tools

Included among the projects that formed the
