Hello, nice to e-meet you!
Hello, nice to e-meet you!
My name is Marija.
When I was 4 years old, I wanted to be a painter. My parents signed me up to the drawing school for children, where I was the happiest and the youngest student. For 6th birthday, they got me "Creative Drawing and Painting", book by Brian Bagnall, which is still one of my most precious possessions.
Twelve years later, I started my architecture studies. It was a combination of all my passions: architecture, design, photography and drawing. In 2016, I got Master's degree in Architecture and Design.
I was a part of an architecture office for 4 years, and had an opportunity to work on private house projects, kindergartens, and multifamily housing projects.
From 2018, I’m working as a full-time freelancer in the digital visual art field —
I'm beyond happy and grateful to do my dream job every day ⋆

I love to photograph beautiful architecture and interesting textures. Those photos I’m using for collages, with the addition of found imagery and geometric elements.
Combining multiple visuals to create new stories is such a thrilling process!
Digital collage is my biggest love, but through analog I can explore ideas differently. You can see here how I transformed pages from VOGUE, ELLE Decor, IKEA and other magazines.
I’ve been part of two amazing artist residency programs in Italy (in Palermo and Castagno di Piteccio). My works were published in Rapsodia - Magazine of arts and literature, and were part of group exhibitions in Serbia, Italy and Korea.
I hope my work can inspire people, and be a little reminder that creativity is something that should never be limited. ♡
