Asiana Jurca Avci se v svojem prozornem fotografskem zinu igra s plastenjem podob in pomena, s tem pa namiguje na posameznikovo in družbeno večslojnost. Sprašuje se o kontekstih, skozi katere se oblikujejo naši individuumi in skozi katere sami ustvarjamo lastne svetove. Zanima jo, kako je biti nekdo drug, in se hkrati zaveda, da tega nikoli ne bomo vedeli.
Asiana Jurca Avci (1992) se je rodila v Londonu. Od leta 1999 živi v Ljubljani, kjer je leta 2015 diplomirala iz fotografije na Akademiji za likovno umetnost in oblikovanje. Svoja (večinoma avtobiografska) dela predstavlja predvsem v obliki fotozinov in knjig, za katere sta značilni izpovedna poetika in senzibilnost za pripoved, ki izhaja iz njenega navdušenja nad filmskim medijem. Dela Jurce Avci pogosto raziskujejo teme, kot so medosebni odnosi, motivacija, samopodoba in vprašanja o pristnosti v umetniškem izražanju. V zadnjem času so se njeni interesi preusmerili iz (hiper) produkcije podob, bolj poglobljeno na umetniško produkcijo samo. Sodelovala je na različnih skupinskih razstavah tako v Sloveniji kot v drugih državah balkanske regije, v zadnjih letih na razstavah “Njen novi vzhod” (2018) v galeriji Galženica v Novi Gorici na Hrvaškem in “Riot Not Diet” (2019) v Galeriji Račka v Celju. Oktobra 2020 se je v projektnem prostoru Fotopub predstavila s svojo prvo samostojno razstavo “A to je to?”, ki je del njenega magistrskega dela, katerega praktični del nosi naslov “Produkcija vrednosti in vrednost reprodukcije”.

Asiana Jurca Avci: It Doesn’t Matter
In her transparent photozine, Asiana Jurca Avci plays around by layering images and meaning, thereby hinting at an individual’s and society’s multilayeredness. She reflects on the contexts through which our individuums are formed and through which we create our own worlds. She wants to know what it is to be someone else, yet she is also aware that we will never know this.
Asiana Jurca Avci (1992) was born in London. Since 1999, she has lived in Ljubljana, where she graduated in Photography from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in 2015. She presents her (chiefly autobiographical) work primarily in the form of photozines and books, which are characterised by confessional poetics and a knack for narration, which originates in her love of film. Her works often explore topics such as interpersonal relations, motivation, self-image and the issue of originality in artistic expression. Recently, her interests have shifted from the (hyper) production of images to more in-depth on artistic production itself. She has participated in various group exhibitions in both Slovenia and the Balkan region, in recent years including the exhibitions “Njen novi vzhod” (2018) at the Galženica Gallery in Nova Gorica in Croatia and “Riot Not Diet” (2019) at the Račka Gallery in Celje. In October 2020, her first solo exhibition “A to je to?”, which is part of her M.A. thesis, the practical part of which is titled “The Production of Value and the Value of Reproduction”, was featured at the Fotopub project space.
