Iva Radivojevic
Iva Radivojevic was born in Belgrade and spent her early years in Yugoslavia and Cyprus. As an artist and filmmaker, she currently divides her time between subarctic Alaska, Brooklyn, and Lesbos. Her work presents itself as a collection of fragments (observations, poems, images, sounds, melodies, languages) that come together to form a meditative whole. Her work revolves around displacement and belonging, seeking connections to the metaphysical or the magical. Her films have been showcased at several major international festivals, and she has received the Sundance Art of Non-Fiction Fellowship as well as the Guggenheim Fellowship. She recently published a poetry collection titled Signatures, or the Bass Line of a Freighter Ship. Her latest film, Aleph, was featured at the Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art.
