I was born in Niš, Yugoslavia, where I earned a master’s degree in architecture. In 2012, I moved to Vienna and worked as a youth worker with girls* and young women* before fully dedicating myself to photography and art. I began learning photography as a teenager, but it was in Vienna that I continued developing my skills, first at the Friedl Kubelka School for Artistic Photography and later at Die Graphische, a photography college.
Growing up in Yugoslavia during the 1990s, my life was profoundly shaped by economic crises, wars, and a widespread erosion of humanity—fueled by patriarchy and one of its strongest tools: divisions. These experiences led me to seek solace and purpose in anti-war, feminist, and queer movements. Years of activism not only shaped me personally but also deeply influenced my approach to art and photography.
My work primarily focuses on photography, often combined with narration, as a means of exploring themes such as the body, identity, social norms, social classes, and their aesthetics. Guided by the famous feminist slogan "The personal is political," I often times start from my own experiences. I approach my subjects using documentary techniques—both as a natural extension of the photographic medium and as a conscious act of resistance against privileged perspectives that tend to overlook or erase the lives and contributions of marginalized groups.
Depending on the project, I either emphasize a documentary approach or blend it with creative expression to create new points of access to the subject. At times, I integrate sound, text, or physical objects alongside photography to deepen the narrative and engage the audience.
