Diana Zrnic
Switching back and forth between the digital and the actual by juxtaposing the two creates a pathway for me to explore the relationship between different types of spaces and different kinds of interaction (the physical and the digital). Through reimagination and digital recycling of my paintings and images, network aesthetics offers me the multiplication of possible forms that thought itself might take. Instead of an "either-or", I am led by a "both-and" principle. I tend to question how we are affected by crises that are not marked by mere knowledge but in ways that both defy and demand our attention.
