\"\"<\/p>\n

In her foreword artist<\/strong> emphasizes:
\n\u201cThe project began in 2022 as a personal exploration of everyday life, habits and grieving processes, and by channeling all-consuming concepts, each work becomes a record of introspective moments, like a checkpoint.
\nThe research explores how a product emerges from scarcity, only for that product to return to scarcity once more. It is a repeated cycle of banal everyday life, the traces we leave behind, and transformation. Through an interactive and non-linear exhibition layout, the audience actively participates in the creation of the narrative, which emphasises the importance of spontaneity and the release of the narrative into something unknown and still unexplored.\u201d<\/p>\n

PREFACE<\/a><\/p>\n

Biography<\/strong>:
\nMihaela Podboj (b. 1998) completed her secondary education at the School of Applied Arts and Design in Osijek before graduating from the Academy of Arts and Culture in Osijek with an MA in Visual Arts, specialising in Printmaking. She participated in a semester-long exchange programme at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts in Budapest and a year-long exchange programme at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart.
\nShe has exhibited in numerous group exhibitions, among which the most notable include the International Student Biennale, Grafi\u010daRi, BIOFILIJA, Ispreplitanje: pleter, and One su tu. She was a finalist for the Zlatna Lubenica 7.0 Award with her work Mirror Me, which also secured first prize in the Fine Arts category at the 2023 Da! Festival. In Stuttgart, she exhibited as part of the reintheoretisch! \u2013 Ideenskizzen module and in the exhibition Neukalibrierung der Realit\u00e4t. She has participated in numerous international workshops and artistic gatherings, and she is a member of ULUPUH (the Croatian Association of Artists of Applied Arts) and the Professional Media Presence (Culture Hub Croatia).
\nIn her artistic practice, Mihaela explores and deconstructs everyday life and subjectivity. She frequently combines techniques in her creative process, and in recent works has primarily used textile and printmaking techniques, while also incorporating poetry, video, and alternative photographic processes.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will be open during the period from 10. to 31.3.2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n
