PRAYER

Kristina Stanojević is a multidisciplinary artist and a graduate sculptor whose work focuses on figurative painting, sculpture, and drawing. In her artistic expression, she explores the relationship of humans to their own body, material, and form, utilizing both classical and contemporary artistic approaches.

Her works represent personal beliefs, emotions, and thoughts, with a special emphasis on the acceptance of imperfection, which she highlights through deformed and irregular forms. The artistic process involves establishing communication between the work and the observer, leaving the meaning of the work open and multi-layered. Kristina merges the issues of contemporary life with symbolism, classical compositions, and motifs, balancing between hyperrealism and minimalism, the permanent and the transient, the soft and the hard, the conscious and the unconscious, critique and praise, the observer and the observed.

In sculpture and painting, she experiments with readily available materials such as plastic, plaster, wool, wood, mirrors, metal, clay, silicone, and others, combining natural and artificial, biodegradable and non-biodegradable materials, while tracking their process of decay and transformation over time.

She is the recipient of several awards, among which stand out the award for best relief, the award for best nude, as well as the annual award for best sculpture. She also won first place at the international miniature competition "Sava Halugin" for the work Air Love.

She has exhibited at numerous group exhibitions in Serbia and abroad, including the Contemporary Art Fair in Monaco and the Exquisite Exhibition in Madrid (2023), where she was awarded a certificate by the Van Gogh Gallery. Her sculptures will soon become part of a group installation in a square in Dortmund.

She has participated in several international and research projects, including INTERRACOTTA, the doctoral project Andrea Palasti's Home Exercises, and the project Mills in Central Banat from Prehistory to 1941. Her works are held in private collections across Europe, are available on the platforms ARTSY, ARTSPER, and LAWCONCEPT, and her work can be followed on Instagram: @krisboginja.painting and @krisboginja.sculpture
