Moving freely between images, objects, and relational art, she examines experiences of time, memory, and social conventions, often reactivating archival material in unexpected ways. Her projects invite audiences to participate in the making of meaning, completing the work through their own perceptions and histories. https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Press Tue, 03 May 2022 08:14:48 +0000 Ana Dunjic Studio https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Press 2025 28.11.2025 TSSK My Every Norwegian Christmas 06.11.2025&nbsp;Trøndelag Centre for Contemporary Art Shout Out!

C. Dahls Bryggeri lot, lies an old industrial building. That used to be the seat of Lade Fabrikker, one of the 20 soap factories in Norway that made the infamous WWII B-såpe. Distributed solely via rationing coupons, B-såpe foamed poorly because it contained only 20% saponified oils of inedible herring waste and German synthetics, and 70% fillers like chalk, talc and clay, which made it dissolve to sand when put in water. This combination of harmful ingredients, bad smell and unappealing haptics made for superior archival material, in the likeness of stone, and many of them survived to be on display in museums and collections around Norway, and are also widely available on Finn.no, which is where I bought mine.One thing you should know about me: I am a child of war. I am always afraid of catastrophic events. For me, the curiosity towards soap comes not just out of fascination with chemistry, but a need to be prepared, to make do with what I have. And when you study a lot of soap recipes, the index of ingredients comes very basic; it's just oils, butters, milks, botanicals, sugar, salt, fragrances. But imagine washing those down the drain during a famine. So B-såpe is a deliberate attempt on behalf of the Norwegian government to create the least wasteful, most goddamn awful industrial soap that ever was. It was bad for your skin, it was bad for your children, and it was free. So people took it, though they tried not to use it. Some held onto it, even to this day, even though it still smells so incredibly nasty more than 80 years later. And that is where I begin my research, at that moment when you are browsing your granny's drawers: all these odd items collected at indeterminate times and indeterminate locations. They point to personal stories no one will ever tell you, even if you bothered to ask. And often, life comes in the way, and we get lost in the living, and forget our job is to collect these stories, and pass them on. And then they are gone for good, and all that remains are these enigmatic, musky things, and a vague sense of guilt. Referring back to my own memories of growing up during the Yugoslav Wars, I am internaly tuned to topics of food rationing, hoarding, generational memory and survivor's guilt. The final product of this 2 month exploration at Atelier BABEL will be my first solo exibition that opens on 03/02 2023 at 19.00. at BABEL <img width="1080" height="1140" width_o="1080" height_o="1140" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/de296cb23a7d25d095edb99168aff1d6892ef926b635d175d8ede5fe62756641/b-sape-INSTAGRAM.jpg" data-mid="160302631" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/de296cb23a7d25d095edb99168aff1d6892ef926b635d175d8ede5fe62756641/b-sape-INSTAGRAM.jpg" /> Daily PorridgeRooted in a state of assigned scarcity, the porridge eating is a spiritual process, in which the participants remove themselves from the world of endless options, and just consume what they are offered - the porridge.Each porridge eating is a unique experience, even though it might look the same every day. Step 1: On the day of the porridge, the host rises very early in the morning to do their work. At noon, they can finally eat their breakfast, the porridge. This porridge is also offered to whomever would like it. Step 2: When guests arrive, they take off their shoes and disinfect their hands to cleanse themselves symbolically and literally. Step 3: The porridge is boiled in an stainless steel pot on an induction cooker. It is vegan and no sugar added. The host mixes the ingredients: havregryn and water are added to the pot and stirred to boil, salted, and left to cook for 5 minutes on low. For those who want the version enriched by seeds, they get their fancy porridge after. Step 4: Guests choose their bowl and spoon and wait in line for their serving. Step 5: After the porridge is served, participants can help themselves to their preferred condiments: honey, cream, sukrin, date paste, eplemos, cinnamon. These are the simbols of luxury and might not be avaliable at all times. Step 6: The guests eat the porridge in the main area. Step 7: Afterwards, they wash their bowl and spoon in the soapy water tub, rinse in the clean water tub, dry with a rug, and put to their original places. Step 8: The porridge eating is is a ritual of sustenance, not an excuse to hang out all day. Unless specifically invited by the host to stay, the guests must leave at this point.<img src="https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif"> Press 13.02.2023 ArtSceneTrondheim, Hanna Malene Lindberg - Flertydig historie03.02.2023 babelkunst.no, Gustav Svihus Borgersen&nbsp; - Ana Dunjic: B-SÅPE 23.01.2023 babelkunst.no -&nbsp;Ana Dunjic: B-SÅPE 29.11.2022 babelkunst.no - Atelier BABEL: Ana Dunjic08.11.2022 Trondheim kommunes kulturstipend20.04.2022 Norske Billedkunstnere (NBK) prosjektstøtte fra Billedkunstnernes Vederlagsfond (BKV) 07.10.2021 BABEL visningsrom for kunst - Atelier BABEL 2022/2023 Winner Anouncement https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Touch-Me-Not-2021 Tue, 03 May 2022 08:28:40 +0000 Ana Dunjic Studio https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Touch-Me-Not-2021 Touch Me Not (2021) Sculpture / Temporary Public Monument, 60x60x75cmMarinen Park, Trondheim Group Show Prosjekt 2021Backed by NTNU Helse, Trondheim Kommune &amp; Midtbyen Management A massive cube of soap is placed on a secluded recess in front of Olavskilden fountain. Comfortably cushioned in the lush green of the park, the scent is strong, and it invites to inspect, to engage and to deliberate; it smells like it cleans, but is it safe to touch? Like all the phenomena that have gotten new meanings in the wake of the pandemic: every day, we must deliberate whether we are being cautious enough, distanced enough, clean enough. How do you express the loss of freedom to explore, to experience, to connect? How does one represent what has ravaged the routines of our daily lives and restricted us to our bubbles? On one hand, the visitor is being invited to wash their hands in public with soap, a new universality of the times. But the society also tells them not to touch, and therein lies the question: Is this something dangerous? Must we distance ourselves from yet another object that we used to relate to with comfortable abandon? Soap as material stands for transience and depletion, and this impermanence of the substance intrinsically negotiates with the complex circumstances that shape it. And so a soap becomes a mirror for the audience to reflect on in the context of ongoing cultural paradigms, a meditation object. The location feels intimate, it is the touching spot. With the running water of Olavskilden, one can really wash their hands. So, some people will do the opposite of what is expected: they will touch it, and they will change it. Its final shape will have encoded on its surface the complexity of all the events that took place during its lifetime. Excerpts from Distanced Unveiling live video stream Watch full video here Observing temporality is a big part of this work. The soap looks solid but wears down quickly. The weather elements gnaw at it. Smell and color fade. But the location is perfectly secluded, a great spot for touching. Some do break the rules. Their wet fingers polish the cube's surface and take away the edges. Their sharp knives cut into it and steal the pieces. They carve in insults and beautiful flowers and runes. This poetic dance between the decay of the sculpture and the meditation of the audience is what the work is about. <img width="1547" height="1547" width_o="1547" height_o="1547" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9e0ef7c15855fdaf0cedc23a7535d94affef76e8eab66bbeb9c7a85e524398f7/PSM_Touchmenot_small01.jpg" data-mid="142501197" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9e0ef7c15855fdaf0cedc23a7535d94affef76e8eab66bbeb9c7a85e524398f7/PSM_Touchmenot_small01.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="1658" width_o="1500" height_o="1658" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4220f88261f3ff4900c6d66823f4bf0b22cdeb541edf3a15c146c11d1545c77d/Ana-Dunjic-Touch-Me-Not-2-months.jpg" data-mid="141514694" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4220f88261f3ff4900c6d66823f4bf0b22cdeb541edf3a15c146c11d1545c77d/Ana-Dunjic-Touch-Me-Not-2-months.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="1500" width_o="1500" height_o="1500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8d6fb162a48a5a6d9a9b5546f86124ad1877de01aa92ae9cf2bec75fd374f5e0/Ana-Dunjic-Touch-Me-Not-3-Months.jpg" data-mid="141514697" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8d6fb162a48a5a6d9a9b5546f86124ad1877de01aa92ae9cf2bec75fd374f5e0/Ana-Dunjic-Touch-Me-Not-3-Months.jpg" /> How ‘Touch Me Not’ transformed throughout 3 months of exhibition Prosjekt 2021 is an initiative by Trondheim Kommune and NTNU Helse that presents five temporary public artworks in different sites across Midtbyen in Trondheim.

Norwegian classes. If you know me, you heard me bitch about this before. My hatred is by a large part provoked by the book we are using on B level; it's called Stein på stein, and it is all about immigrants and poor people. There's no one in it doing stuff like watching TV, working out, baking bread or growing plants. Nobody that talks about feelings or cosmos or dinosaurs, just how they can't afford to buy a new car or get a job because xenophobia. Seriously, everything about this book is irrelevant and insulting to me, and the fact that it was written by people thinking that these topics are so applicable to me that they are ABOUT ME is making me scream in my head while we read from it, every time. 2. Explaining what it is I do / plan to do. I am a private person and also I live a lot in my head, so it seems like I am lazy and not doing much to the judgy doer people, like my mom. There is no way I could favorably explain to her my plans and actions in life, and this uncomfort about sharing has spread into generalized anxiety about talking about anything I do, want to do or have done already. Sondre is always teasing&nbsp;me how when his parents ask me what it is I'm doing these days I start talking about weather. But yeah, to talk about myself and what I do is supremely uncomfortable. 3. Housework. Another one that relates to my mom, and especially to her mom, my grandmother, god rest her beautiful soul. They were both absolute neat freaks when I was growing up. Apart from endless lists of repetitive daily chores, my sweet little granny would vacuum every single day, right after breakfast. This particular thing was so odd to me, that I would mention it to people who didn't know her when I was describing her as a quirky trait she had. In both their opinions I was a careless slob and early on they discouraged me from cleaning and would instead send me grocery shopping or watering the plants. §§§ The first time I was forced to read from Stein på stein, it was a semester after I graduated from KiT. I was pregnant and nauseated, so going to classes became infinitely harder than before when it was just boring. Sweating bullets about whether I will have to run out to vomit in the middle of a class is exactly the opposite of feeling comfortable, but still boring. <img width="750" height="1000" width_o="750" height_o="1000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d373f7d0bb0e8d1feed6a6728b6d1cb26ce3864a4849ca39e51998b0c5bed4be/IMG_3481.jpg" data-mid="144194450" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/750/i/d373f7d0bb0e8d1feed6a6728b6d1cb26ce3864a4849ca39e51998b0c5bed4be/IMG_3481.jpg" /> Kapittel 1, Erfaringer og planer (Chapter 1, Experiences and plans), and the first text is about Sonia, an immigrant stay-at-home mom, pictured here in her reduced state - with a vacuum cleaner, hair undone, babies crawling around her bare feet.&nbsp; This image and the lesson about her hit like a nuclear kick in the gut, and I found myself nitpicking them over and over again. Is this who they want me to be? Is this all I am to them? Look at this... furniture. She is fucking barefoot! I did this so much, and with such hatred and disgust, that I realized I need to back off; that there is nothing wrong with Sonia, the photo of her with her family; that what she is doing is a noble work and god's work, and that I need to elevate it, and stop this narcissistic poison in my head; that there is nothing strange about aspiring to be a stay-at-home mother, that that is a legitimate life choice, one that gets unrecognized and unapreciated, but is essential work for humanity and society. That, yes, I am going to be the same as her, and the same as my grandmother, and endless mothers of this world. I too am going to vacuum every day, and have really bad hair. I'm just an ordinary working person. To be human is to be a hypocrite, and to grow out of it takes constant checking.

The work observes how landscape, light, and seaweed transform into alien lifeforms, allowing the complex choreography of biology to become its own narrative. Syntia Rose is an experimental pop duo of Frida Blomberg Håvardstun &amp; Magdaléna Manderlová. They combine live electronics and vocal improvisation over an experimental backdrop of delicate organic sounds, synths, and intuitive melodies. https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Memory-Crystal-2019 Tue, 03 May 2022 08:28:41 +0000 Ana Dunjic Studio https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Memory-Crystal-2019 Memory Crystal (2019) Multimedia InstallationGroup show Bridges Are Burning TKM Gramølna, Trondheim Winner of Bildende Kunstneres Hjelpefond (BKH) kunststudentstipend Slow-motion images of water are reflected throughout the space, layered with sculptural forms of soap produced during the artist’s research at Kunstakademiet i Trondheim. A distinct olfactory element of plant-based scent, most notably orange, permeates the room, binding image and material into an immersive field. The work asks whether it is possible to step back from the impulses and emotions triggered by this illusory archive and simply witness reality, just as it is: clear, chemical, frameless, void of meaning, and strangely beautiful. Memory Crystal attempts a reconstruction of our present times from a projected future that no longer understands it. In this imagined distance, familiar things, like a body of water, a mass of soap, a passing scent, have become so estranged from everyday life that they are read as fragments of nature, merged into a single, undiferentiated archeological archive. The installation treats recollection as a subjective process, in which illusions slowly harden into seductive stories, inviting the viewer to question how meaning is assembled from pure sensory traces. <img width="2000" height="1333" width_o="2000" height_o="1333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7559de6d10b3b746187c61f529a615bc08af9579393f80bdd170853a9b7cc9b7/ad---Banner-2.jpg" data-mid="141516211" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7559de6d10b3b746187c61f529a615bc08af9579393f80bdd170853a9b7cc9b7/ad---Banner-2.jpg" /> <img width="750" height="1334" width_o="750" height_o="1334" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2294a7a07f81ab034fe8f0a254cca6bba780e9e0d4fea379995c7b08d57b7117/Layer-9a.jpg" data-mid="141516226" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/750/i/2294a7a07f81ab034fe8f0a254cca6bba780e9e0d4fea379995c7b08d57b7117/Layer-9a.jpg" /> <img width="750" height="1334" width_o="750" height_o="1334" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/be3b5d578ceeedf3293e12e310e9a4eca87341e6293de153fe8cf2beb612670f/Layer-3.jpg" data-mid="141516217" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/750/i/be3b5d578ceeedf3293e12e310e9a4eca87341e6293de153fe8cf2beb612670f/Layer-3.jpg" /> <img width="3000" height="2100" width_o="3000" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0805eb3a7ee15bb5347204022fac1df33c875306421340706d65a48dc8211552/ad---aRoom-2.jpg" data-mid="141516213" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0805eb3a7ee15bb5347204022fac1df33c875306421340706d65a48dc8211552/ad---aRoom-2.jpg" /> <img width="3360" height="2100" width_o="3360" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/327191ac84329863253f4d12712cffc47677297d841c6ca027097582632020ab/ad---Crystal-1-.jpg" data-mid="141516210" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/327191ac84329863253f4d12712cffc47677297d841c6ca027097582632020ab/ad---Crystal-1-.jpg" /> <img width="750" height="1334" width_o="750" height_o="1334" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b5981ebf39bfebcea73990a72518286a5e689366ed4d28413432fe1bdfa8ee60/Layer-1.jpg" data-mid="142494307" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/750/i/b5981ebf39bfebcea73990a72518286a5e689366ed4d28413432fe1bdfa8ee60/Layer-1.jpg" /> <img width="513" height="913" width_o="513" height_o="913" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6185d71c5c5771c0bf96bf0c43edb3a9156abb03131fbbbec43424973f20d473/Layer-19.jpg" data-mid="141516233" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/513/i/6185d71c5c5771c0bf96bf0c43edb3a9156abb03131fbbbec43424973f20d473/Layer-19.jpg" /> <img width="3000" height="2100" width_o="3000" height_o="2100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/480dd87b2427126a4754e468731f2f829937aa51d1b54b29bbf8cdeafe01edf3/ad---aRoom-1.jpg" data-mid="141516214" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/480dd87b2427126a4754e468731f2f829937aa51d1b54b29bbf8cdeafe01edf3/ad---aRoom-1.jpg" /> <img width="2500" height="1428" width_o="2500" height_o="1428" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f3f7d1419700579a1c97c9630c5cb08b84155acabbc98a15ef3dba67157cd6b9/ad---Banner-1.jpg" data-mid="141516212" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f3f7d1419700579a1c97c9630c5cb08b84155acabbc98a15ef3dba67157cd6b9/ad---Banner-1.jpg" /> Press21.05.2019 Kunstkritikk, Nicholas Norton - Opplysningstid14.05.2019 ArtsceneTrondheim, Eline Bjerkan - Dette er ikke en utstillingTrondheim Kunstmuseum - KiT masterutstilling Bridges Are BurningArt &amp; Education - Bridges Are Burning https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Samadhi-TV-2018 Tue, 03 May 2022 18:31:24 +0000 Ana Dunjic Studio https://anadunjic.cargo.site/Samadhi-TV-2018 Samadhi TV (2018) Multimedia Installation Group Show “Switch” Galleri KiT, Trondheim Samadhi TV is an installation that evokes the atmosphere of a living room through a constellation of everyday objects, acting as a frame for eight looping television channels that present the artist’s private cosmology of media trance.The installation assembles over two hours of material accumulated during three semesters of MFA research, shot and edited in collaboration with local artists.
