Biografia

Nina makes paintings, photos, drawings and media art. By merging several seemingly incompatible worlds into a new universe, Sumarac aims to amplify the astonishment of the spectator by creating compositions or settings that generate tranquil poetic images leaving residual traces and balances on the edge of recognition and alienation.

Her works directly respond to the surrounding environment taking everyday experiences as a point of departure to investigate nuanced representations. Often these are framed instances that would go unnoticed in their original context. By applying a poetic and often metaphorical language, she uses a visual vocabulary that addresses many different social and political issues. The work incorporates time as well as space – a fictional and experiential universe that only emerges gradually. The possibility or the dream of the annulment of a (historically or socially) fixed identity is a constant focal point.
