PAVLE BANOVIĆ

Pavle Banović was born in 1998 in Belgrade, where they live and work. They were a member of the young artistic collective Institute for Applause, as well as the current project called COMMONS - Imagining the institution of the future.  They finished their bachelor and master studies at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade, at New Media department, spending one year on an exchange programe at ALUO in Ljubljana. 

In my work, I try to examine different ways of existing and doing today and rethink them. Also, discover relationships between individuals and ideologies and how can these two destabilize each other. How do authentic life experiences and narrations oppose dominant structures?

In the past two years, more specifically, my interest and research is mostly related to technological advancements in this context. I am focused on how contemporary technologies interfere with, and shape, our lives or life experiences and the other way around.
