Eva Petrič is a transmedia artist who was first known for her creative use of photography, with which she explored the language of shadows and our existence on an ephemeral level. Her motivation to create spaces on different levels determined by atmosphere leads her to use a transmedia approach in her artistic practice.
She has created more than 30 large-scale site-specific installations based on assemblages of found and recycled lace interwoven with video, sound, smell, performance and choreographic movements.
They were exhibited in various, mostly public spaces around the world, from UNO in New
York City to Centro Cultural Borges in Buenos Aires, from St. Stephan's Cathedral in Vienna to underground Postojna Caves in Slovenia, from Cairo to Tokyo and even International Space Station in Earths Low Orbit, Her installation Thoughts without skin, floating, consisting of assemblages of recycled lace, defined the Slovenian Pavilion as Guest of Honor at the 2023 Frankfurt Book Fair.
