Since 2020 she has been a PhD student of Art History at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Nova University of Lisbon, Portugal. She is currently researching the representation of women workers and the conceptualization of ‘female work’ in works of Portuguese art and Croatian art from 1930s to 1950s, which she tends to interpret within the framework of social reproduction theory. She works as independent curator and art critic for the Croatian website Vizkultura. In 2021 she developed and organized a free education program entitled “How to think about urbanism and public space?”, which analyses public space as a place that reflects cultural policies and dominant social and gender relations. Her areas of interest are art theory, art history from a Marxist feminist point of view, socially engaged artistic practices and rethinking the public space.
