Dijana Engelmann is a multimedia artist whose work includes performative and participatory art as well as the exploration of social issues and personal experiences through various media. Born in 1989 in Split, Croatia, she lives and works in Luxembourg. Dijana Engelmann studied sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Split (UMAS), Croatia, and at the FH Aachen, Germany.
In her creative endeavours, Engelmann consistently focuses on exploring and interpreting various social and interpersonal dynamics within contemporary society. These thematic explorations are evident in her notable exhibitions such as ‘Unknown’ (2014) and ‘Forms’ (2023). She also explores the dynamic nature inherent in artistic creation, delicately examining the fluidity and redefinition of boundaries between artist and audience. This aspect is highlighted in works such as ‘Game’ (2015), ‘Laboratory of the Flow of Consciousness’ (2016), ‘Forms’ (2023) and ‘Readapt’ (2023), which encourage reflection on the changing nature of these boundaries and foster a profound dialogue about the intricate connections between creator and audience.
