Constructing Boundaries: Between Signature and Erasure

Borders often appear to us as static lines on maps, yet in reality they are alive — formed through language, customs, and the ways we perceive one another. The exhibition Constructing Boundaries: Between Signature and Erasure enters a space of tension between identity and control, between the trace we leave behind (the signature) and what is silenced or removed (erasure).

The exhibition is the result of a collaboration between the associations Hiša! and Arka, whose practices demonstrate that borders — physical, symbolic, national, and disciplinary — are porous. Here, culture is not understood as a static display, but as a living process of encounters within difference.

Participating Artists

The exhibition brings together diverse artistic poetics from Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina:

• Fulvia Grbac – a connector of cultural currents from the Slovenian coast and traditions of graphic art.

• Maja Pegan – exploring light, memory, and public space.

• Slađana Matić Trstenjak – creating fields of tension between inner states and the surrounding environment.

• Nina Medved – capturing moments of silence and bodily presence through photography and text.

• Monika Pocrnjić / Monitronica – intermedia transitions between manual gesture and algorithm.

• Amer Hadžić – transforming the tradition of the Bosnian house into spaces of contemporary pop culture.

• Denis Haračić – uncompromisingly exploring the human core through progressive graphic art.

• Eldina Kožljak – creating escapist underwater worlds that transcend fixed limitations.

• Maja Hodžić – developing a visual language that moves between wakefulness and dreams.

We warmly invite you to step with us into a space where a border does not signify division, but rather an opportunity for connection.

The event is the result of a collaboration between the associations Hiša! and Arka, who believe that community emerges when we allow ourselves to be without borders.

The exhibition will be open on weekdays from 15:00 to 18:00.
