STATEMENT

I see video art as relieving and refreshing art that offers romantic possibilities and the greatest freedom of investigation into the secrets of narration, which function according to the impulses of conscience in the open-hearted artist.

C.V.

Born in 1943 in Jesenice, she graduated in 1969 from the Sociology and Psychology departments of the Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana. She specialised in television and video media at the British Film Institute in London in 1972, and received a scholarship from the French government in Paris in 1984. Since 1988 she has been creating in the domain of video art on her own. She works as the Head of the Media Education at the Educational Technology Department in the National Education Institute. She is also active in media education.

Between 1967 and 1988 she worked together with Srečo Dragan.

A woman's body communicates with its surroundings; it is a receptor of the macrocosm that bears traces of all other laws, including even the physiology with all its energetic zones. This is the energy that corresponds to spiritual experiences, which also depend on the body technique. The communicability can be understood, among other things, as one of the variations of the functioning of the body within the sequential regime of signs.
