INTRODUCTION
I am an emerging visual artist born in Serbia in 1989.
After graduating from Art school Tehnoart Beograd, jewelry department, in 2009 I entered the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade, where I obtained a Master’s degree in Painting in 2015.
Until now, I had seven solo exhibitions and participated in numerous group exhibitions and art colonies.
I live and create in Belgrade, Serbia.
STATEMENT
I am a visual artist whose current visual expression is deeply rooted in the aesthetic thought of abstract minimalism and postminimalism. I create artworks on paper and canvas by exploring the possibilities of a framed and clear geometric form.
My work revolves around the exploration of color harmony, values, shapes, and perfect proportions. The starting point is a minimalistic approach and reexamination of the form of painting in an effort to reach aesthetic harmony. Line as a clash of two surfaces is the base building element and as such is present on the majority of artworks. My works are distinguished by geometrization, simplification, and reduction of everything unnecessary. By focusing on illumination as a visual element and building the painting around it, I’m exploring the descriptive boundaries of both coloured and monochrome surfaces. The technical approach is very traditional- oil and acrylic on canvas, gilding, and watercolors.
