| Jelena
Juresa was born in Novi Sad where she finished her studies at the Academy of Arts. She has
participated in solo and joint exhibitions in Serbia, France, Croatia, Austria, USA... In
her latest works, in which she addresses the issue of gender, that is, cultural identity,
the narrative is in the foreground and is united with the image in the form of a textual
or auditory record (What It Feels Like for a Girl, 2005 – 2009; Mozarts, 2009). Her visual research is based on the exploration of the
communicational qualities of the image. Her work focuses on the portrait, through which
she examines the relationship between the observer and the observed via the given
possibility of understanding the portrayed subject and problematizing the question of what
the image does or does not convey.
The photographic image is the starting point of her
creative consideration of the portrait, irrespective of whether the medium is photography,
video or an audiovisual installation.
