She participated in workshops "Ruksak pun kulture- umjetnost i kultura u vrtiću i školi / "Redefinicija fotografije Toše Dapca u prostornu sliku" and 5. Festival Umjetnost i žena / "Slava Raškaj, pogled u daljinu". In my work, I tend to experiment with possibilities of creating reliefs and textures of places and landscapes that I depict. Works are the result of thinking about the problem of variability and instability of memories, about the issue of fading memories. Our memory is formed through experiences and their spatial textures. Visualized personal memories of an individual appear to the observer as unknown and unexplored places. Artworks are created by simplifying, to its unrecognizability, a selected fragment of the Dalmatian landscape. Other works were created as a result of observing the sea surface and its richness of marine expressiveness.

Women about women II - Residential

International Exhibition

The residency program in Zadar provided space and conditions for individual and collective creation and production of artworks, exchange of knowledge among young female artists and curators. That international program gathered young female artists from different countries, selected by six female curators form Europe and WB. Artworks created during the two-weeks residential program are an integral part of the collective exhibition in physical and virtual reality. The exhibition Women about Women, residential is a logical continuation of the project goals. Twenty-nine international female young artists made a various artwork, expressions on paintings, sculptures, installation in glass, textile, paper, videos, performance etc. It carries a strong message of female angle of creativity in the contemporary visual art and energy of youth and diversity. Heterogeneity of visual expression is an inevitable phenomenon of the modern age as well as the diversity of media in which or with which they are expressed. Diversity of approaching to the females’ identities is a logical artistic response to the live in the modern age.
