Artist talk: Majda Vidaković
24.3.–24.3.2026.
Artist-in-residence Majda Vidaković will give an artist talk at MMSU Rijeka on March 24.
From March 17 to April 2, multidisciplinary visual artist and artist-in-residence Majda Vidaković is staying in Rijeka as part of the Kamov Residency Programme.
On Tuesday, March 24 at 6 PM, she will give an artist talk at MMSU Rijeka, where she will present her artistic practice and her sculptural research project “Post-socialist Nostalgia and Reimagined Monuments: Making Intangible Heritage Tangible.” This research focuses on the complex relationship between memory, monumentality, and cultural identity in a post-socialist context. The project aims to collect and reinterpret traces of intangible heritage in Rijeka — including discarded materials, neglected monuments, architectural fragments, and local narratives.
Majda Vidaković lives and works in The Hague, the Netherlands. She graduated in Photography from the Royal Academy of Art (KABK) in The Hague. In her work, she explores the relationship between space, materials, and memory, using found objects, construction remnants, and recycled materials. Through photography, sculpture, and installations, she engages with themes of traces, monuments, transformation, and the value of what has been abandoned or forgotten.She has exhibited in numerous group and solo exhibitions in the Netherlands and internationally, including the CODA Paper Art Biennale and Galerie M. Simons in Amsterdam. She has also participated in international residencies, such as the European Ceramic Work Centre (EKWC) and PADA Studios in Lisbon.
Artist residency is organised in collaboration with the association Kultura svima svugdje.
