Adrijana was born in Titograd in 1986. She grew up in Podgorica and finished her Fine Art studies in Montenegro. From 2012-2020 she mostly lived in Belgium, wandering “Who is Adrian Lister?”. She obtained a Master in Vrije Kunsten (Luca School of Arts Brussels) and an advanced Master of Research in Art and Design (St Lucas Antwerpen). At the same time, she made a living as freelance technical support for the production of museum exhibitions. This early experience inspired her works and later, it pushed her practice more towards artistic research and motivated the desire for a different engagement of artists within art institutions, through/outside the exhibition format. Her most recent works and artistic engagements are realized through close collaborations: co-curating the three-month postgraduate program Not in the mood (a.pass, Brussels), research project Anthropomorphic Trouble (Art Catalyst, Sheffield and Whitechapel Gallery, London), exhibition This situation has developed over a long time (ŠKUC Gallery, Ljubljana), video work Water made to move (SCHUNCK, Heerlen), card-reading performance 7 anxieties and the world (Glasmoog Cologne, GMK Zagreb, CIAP Hasselt).
