I was born and raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina, former Yugoslavia. I have moved to Belgrade in the middle of the awful and bloody war where I got my degree at University of Fine Arts. That gave me an opportunity to express my disgust with authorities, mentality and a tradition of wrong choices, and to criticize the society through my works and try to set the focus on consequences of our misdoings.

It’s an interactive installation consisting of 8 ordinary doors arranged in a shape of swastika. The
doors are all closed at the beginning, and the spectator/subject is free to approach it from all
directions. If spectator/subject try to open the doors he’s facing, one after the other, and leave
them open, he will end up trapped inside a rectangular space enclosed by open doors.
This paradox that opening doors could get you captured is a reminder that reality is too complex
to comply to simple answers, and that a chain of simple solutions usually leads to a
counterintuitive ends.
