Bio/Statement:

Evolving between personal history and transitory memories, the artistic practice of Ivana Ivković is primarily based in the medium of drawing which which she creates site-specific interventions and distinctive environments encompassing other media. Her work has been described as captivatingly frank and yet intensely private and self-reflexive. Intimate quotidian reactions, sensations and observations towards specific cultural and historical narratives are the starting point in Ivana’s body of work, resulting in expressive, tender, and thought-provoking drawings where images and text coincide.
