Neja Tomšič

Bio:

• Neja Tomšič (1982) is a visual artist, poet, and writer whose interdisciplinary practice merges different disciplines and media such as drawing, photography, poetry, performance, and music. By uncovering overlooked and often hidden stories from history, her passion is to rethink dominant historical narratives, researching into particularities, and creating situations where new understandings of the present can be formed. She approaches histories as maps of starting points and links. Performative elements in her projects explore possible projections of history into the subjective present of individual visitors. ​

  ​Neja also works as a curator and producer and is a co-founder of MoTA (Museum of Transitory Art), a Ljubljana-based research and production platform devoted to transitory art. She lives and works in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
