The works of Jasmina Cibic posit themselves as site-specific interventions where myths are fabricated in order to disrupt the normal flow of events; space hybridisation takes place through the use of personal poetics which insert themselves directly into the existing bureaucratical apparatus, institutions and the visual field of the casual passer-by. The spectator becomes a faux tourist and the art work within its architectonical framework a souvenir object par excellence – it is namely a fetish of the Experience.

Cibic’s work poses questions around translation of the process behind the production of an experience and engages with the nature of the totality of the art market as analogous to that of the tourist industry; the supply and demand in both are always new experiences and new exoticisms, where never seen places (artistic practises) take on new spectacular forms within the spectator’s visual field

Slovenian artist Jasmina Cibic graduated from the MA in Fine Art at Goldsmiths College in 2006. She has exhibited widely with the art group Passaporta across Europe (Umjetnicka galerija Bih, Sarajevo, Biennial of Young Artists Comos, Athens, Gemine Muse, Venice …). Cibic shows with the Ljubljana based gallery Ganes Pratt and has shown with Bearspace at the Zoo Art Fair, upcoming exhibitions include: Liste art fair Köln, Mestna Galerija Ljubljana, Pilot 3, and the solo show “Tourists welcome” at the Ljubljana International Airport.
