Beloved
Through this series Beloved, I question loving relationships and destructive emotions which can arise from an idealized sense of love.
Infertile grounds
In the Infertile Grounds series I endeavour to create a place of memory within the space of the photograph, an alternative memento that is not created by ideology, rather by the need to open up the space of remembrance for victims who are never going to acquire their own space in the official culture of memory.
Sandra Vitaljić was born in Pula, in 1972. She earned her master’s degree in Photography and a Ph.D. in History and Theory of Photography from the Academy of Performing Arts, Film and TV (FAMU) in Prague.

She was awarded CEC ArtsLink residence at the Ansel Adams Center for Photography in San Francisco (1997).
As a Fulbright fellow, she conducted her doctoral research at the Rochester Institute of Technology and at the George Eastman House, International Museum of Photography and Film, in Rochester, NY. She exhibited her works domestically and abroad. Her photographs are featured in the permanent collections of the Modern Gallery in Zagreb, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rijeka, as well as in the Polaroid collection and Camera Austria.
