Her latest exhibition was a Feature shot magazine group exhibition in Clamp Art Gallery, in NYC.
Marina’s images are records of life experiences made using an analog camera and a 35 mm support film, media which add to her shots a reflective feel and an intimacy with the world. One of the author’s interests which emerge from those pictures is the use of natural light, a factor that adds further suggestions to her shots. The journal component is something that characterizes Danic’s entire work, a component from which her filmmaker mark emerges, and a component, above of all, through which she does an introspective work not far from the one done by the artists in the eighties, as an evidence, including also her use of the analog camera, of the link with the photography of the past. She has published two photobook projects: The Book of Dreams in 2021 and Serbiana in 2022.
Project Statement
‘Liberation’
I am sure that she never left. She keept on living away from me, parallel lives. And I dont know what her life is like. What I do know is that we will eventually meet and I will need nothing more after that. It will be the greatest encounter. Part of maturing is accepting my fault why we had to part and why so many years have been let to pass. Only we who have left ourselves somewhere know of this kind of sorrow. We are hard seashells, empty and cold forever searching for our flesh, our beating heart.
Taking a photograps has been healing me because in the moment of taking a photograph a special intimate bond is created.I come alive again. I enjoy that silence, that intimacy. It may be just the closest I will ever be to this world.
