My video Until the Last of Our Labours Is Done will be screened tomorrow at Mimosa House London, part of the 5th iteration of Choreographic Devices.

From the press release:
“Choreographic Devices is an itinerant annual research platform dedicated to choreographic and post-dance practices across artistic, discursive and curatorial fields. Since 2022, and against the pressured backdrops of permacrisis and depletion, Choreographic Devices has been testing how bodies, material assemblages, organisational forms and modes of being alongside one another might be choreographed otherwise. Drawing on a broad ecology of practices and bringing together key local and international practitioners, the platform understands choreographic inquiry as extending beyond the event itself into its organisational architectures. Its modular and scalable format moves fluidly between integrated multi-day programmes, screenings, discursive exchanges, workshops and performative gatherings.

For its fifth iteration at Mimosa House, Choreographic Devices presents a moving-image programme exploring the choreographic as an expanded methodology for organising relations across bodies, images, perception and time. Selected by friends and allies of Choreographic Devices, the assembled works approach moving image as a site of choreographic inquiry, inviting new ways of sensing, composing and orienting perception across cinematic and choreographic registers.

This iteration features selections and contributions by Murat Adash, Funmi Adewole Eliott, Daniel Blanga Gubbay, Ofri Cnaani, Nicola Conibere, Theo Jean Cuthand, Claire Denis, Marie de Brugerolle, Future of Dance, Linus Gratte, Martin Hargreaves, Jack Hogan, Vlatka Horvat, Mica Levi, Ligia Lewis, Fabrice Mazliah, Sara Sassanelli, Edgar Schmitz, Esther Sadiqquie, P. Staff, Kostas Stasinopoulos, Tabitha Thorlu-Bangura, and Anna Wittenberg.

Choreographic Devices is convened by Murat Adash, Ofri Cnaani, Sara Sassanelli and Edgar Schmitz, and produced by Sara Sassanelli (Alice Agency), with technical support by Jack Hogan.”

Here’s a sneak peak – I will add images of the show at the link here after the opening.

My exhibition, titled Echo Location, will open on Thursday, 9th July at Swimming Pool in Sofia, opening also this year’s edition of Nine Elephants festival. While in Sofia, I will also be leading a workshop on Wednesday, 8th July, and on Thursday before the opening, join us for a conversation / exhibition walk-through.

The artist talk / walk-through is at 5pm / exhibition and festival opening 6 – 10pm. All welcome.
The workshop you need to sign up for by emailing the gallery.

Info about the show and the workshop is here.

About the festival:

“The new festival edition, titled Everything We Do, connects the city with our actions – from everyday activities and micro-gestures, to the city as a place for work and learning, to the better things we could do, if only something were not holding us back. Between habit and radical change, between economic labor and invisible care, a broad ecology of interactions unfolds — shaping the city as it is, but also as it could be.”

You can read about the festival programme on e-flux here or see the whole day-by-day schedule here.

I’m very happy that my 2024 Venice Biennale project, By the Means at Hand, which I donated to the Museum of Contemporary Art / MSU Zagreb after the closing of the Biennale, is being exhibited at the museum this spring.

The exhibition at the MSU presents a selection of works by artists who participated in my project in Venice, alongside extensive accompanying documentation of the project’s conception, development, and realization.

The opening reception is on Tuesday, 24th March at 6pm (MSU, 3rd floor) and the exhibition remains on view until 21st June 2026.

My exhibition, titled Mijene (Changes / Tides), opened yesterday in the Cellars of the Diocletian’s Palace in Split, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built at the end of the 3rd century as a fortress, military garrison, and residence for the Roman emperor Diocletian.

The exhibition stretches through several vaulted underground halls of the western wing of the Diocletian’s Cellars. The new works, conceived in dialogue with the space and realized in situ, draw from the history of the Cellars as well as from their spatial and architectural characteristics.

A selection of photos from No Contextual Information, a collaborative work by me and Tim Etchells, is on view in ‘New Horizons: Growing Sheffield’s Art Collection’ at Millennium Gallery. The show presents highlights of the paintings, works on paper, sculpture and video art that have joined the Visual Art Collection of Sheffield Museums over the last ten years.



No Contextual Information, a series of 35 photos, was one of the works we produced as part of our commission for Sheffield Museums in 2017. The series was subsequently acquired by the museum thanks to matching grants from ArtFund and V&A Purchase Grant Fund.



The full series is here. Info on our 2017 show that the series was a part of is here.



’New Horizons’ is on at Millennium Gallery until 25 January 2026.

The Past Is Another Country (01-16), 2015
Inkjet photo collage mounted on board

The source material for this series of collages are photographs depicting a female figure, the artist’s mother, in scenes shot in the late 60s/early 70s socialist Yugoslavia. Using a series of cutting and folding gestures, the artist sometimes removes all context and surroundings around the figure of her mother as a young woman, leaving the figure suspended in the midst of empty frames; other times she folds the figure outside the edges of the photograph, or outside the edges of the paper itself.

Photo documentation of my work Unhinged, a 6-hour performance realized in Brussels, Lisbon, Berlin, Bern, Rotterdam, and Zurich in 2010 and 2011 is included in a group show It’s Too Late to Give Up – Feminist Performance in Croatia, opening on Tuesday 3 March 2025 at the Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb. The exhibition is produced by DOMINO Association, and is the third exhibition in their cycle of shows looking at Feminist Performance in Croatia.
