bestiarium
This is a cycle dedicated to ordinary small animals, birds, and insects. Small lives, modest destinies, and after their death, only a small memory and these little poems remain. Valentina Shash's extraordinary design underscores the interconnectedness of everything in the universe and the hope for the triumph of life.
herbarium
A crown of sonnets describing the garden through which God the Gardener walks, admiring every plant and every detail along with the reader. Various types of sonnets and the extraordinary design by Valentina Shash emphasize the integrity of the concept and the interconnectedness of everything in the universe.
