Mirjana Vrbaki

Mirjana Vrbaki: odd time, the artist's first monograph, cuts to the core of Vrbakis practice: A ritualistic search for states of quiet tension. Accompanied by Koen Potgieters insightful contemplation, odd time juxtaposes Vrbakis austere portraits of women against cryptic forest scenes from the Dalmatian coast. Modelling the book after the asymmetrical musical rhythm known as odd time meter and native to Southern European musical traditions, Vrbaki composes a visual sequence that celebrates the hidden over the obvious. In an era insistent on knowing and controlling, odd time opens space for a dissonant experience of the world.
