Dušica Dražić is an artist and curator that explores spaces of irregularity that carry strong political meaning. She analyses their transformation and rethinks them at the level of cultural continuity. The history of the place and opposing interpretations of the same past were always in the foreground of her work. Often the complexity of the subject entails a combination of scientific and artistic approaches, that fosters transdisciplinary approach. Dražić was awarded “Dimitrije Bašičević Mangelos” Award and “Young European Artist Trieste Contemporanea” Award in 2010. She was a resident at IASPIS, Stockholm (2015), KulturKontakt, Vienna (2013), TimeLab, Ghent (2012), Tobačna 001, Ljubljana (2011) and ISCP, NYC (2010).

Projektinfo

I was invited by the curator Anamarija Batista to be a part of the group exhibition Productive Work - what is that supposed to be? at frei_raum Q21 exhibition space, Vienna, Austria in June 2018. During the residency at Q21 I will develop a new work that looks at the value and perception of manual labour and the relationship between leisure and work.
