In residence at Zvjezdane Staze in July 2024, as one of the five artists of the first season, selected through the Open Call 2024.
From the residency
During my stay in the village of Mijakovići, as part of the AiR ZS residency, I worked on developing the text and script for the project Metamorfoze. The project is an idea by composer Damjan Jovičin and me, in the form of a musical theater.
