A circular vision, repetitive, inspired by dystopian science fiction; it seems to suggest a world in which human beings grasp for their bearings. But finding oneself is not an impossible mission and Valdivia is not a pessimist. He raises rather a series of &#8220;survival&#8221; questions with humour and distance. We are thus transported into an enigmatic and poetic context which is<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">disorientating because of its contrast with the violence of his subject matter. His characters inhabit suspended, indefinite, spaces where things no longer work as they ought to, as if they had lost their purpose. Communication between individuals also appears to have broken. This radical questioning challenges the very nature of our world, a world we believed we were familiar with.<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_masonry_media_grid grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1587025389868-20d63f13-9e9d-3&#8243; include=&#8221;9991,5153,5148,5152,5150,5151&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><center>Outubro &#8211; Novembro 2016<\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":25433,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[244,286],"class_list":["post-15539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-portfolios","tag-2016-en","tag-previous"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15539"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15539\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15542,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15539\/revisions\/15542"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
