Aleksandra Valkova is a film, theatre-maker and performer currently training on the MA Theatre and Performance programme at Queen Mary University of London, and training from Collective Acting Studio London. Her practice moves between traditional and experimental performance, combining theatre, visual art, photography, and installation to explore themes of identity, embodiment, memory, and emotional inheritance.

Her most recent work includes unfold (2026), a practice-led installation-performance investigating generational trauma through the body using photography and projection.

Alongside performance-making, her work explores the relationship between text, self, and spectatorship through interdisciplinary and practice-based research.

unfold (2026)

unfold is a practice-led installation-performance investigating generational trauma and embodied identity. Working through fragmented photography, projection, and spatial encounter, the project explores how emotional inheritance persists through bodily trace, absence, and repetition.

threads of absence (2025)

durational live art performance

Threads of Absence is an experimental performance exploring grief and remembrance through fragmented narrative, embodied memory, and visual symbolism. The work examines how absence continues to shape presence and how love, loss, and memory remain threaded through the body and imagination.
