  Snezana Saraswati Petrovic moved to the United Stated in 1991 at the verge of the Yugoslavian civil war; she has been in search of “home” while exploring the idea of one’s habitat and one’s place within it ever since. 


Installation artist, video and performance artist, academic and award-winning set and costume designer, Snezana is fascinated with everyday objects and their ability for transformation. Her art seeks to open a dialogue between the past and present moment, in a poetic language of visual interplay between seemingly opposites, she is an environment maker – considering herself a home builder for false and authentic inhabitants. Petrovic is intrigued with the human condition and its relationship to spaces and objects.
