Katarina Jerinic

Katarina Jerinic, a renowned artist in the Interactive industry, digitally creates maps, systematic compositions, and similar established "navigational guides." In order to do so, Jerinic studies "formal models of natural phenomena," investigating the details of that which organically exist. The artist then takes these landscapes and poses them to be fictional, recreating them with her own personal designs. "I am interested in using the structure of one to examine the other--not unlike the Situationist tactic of using a map of one place to move through another." Jerinic essentially is reacting to the natural space around her, and furthermore attempting to get others to react within the spaces she creates herself.

Katarina Jerinic participated in the Bronx Museum’s AIM program and has completed residencies at MacDowell Colony and the Experimental Television Center. She is currently an artist-in-residence at the Center for Book Arts, New York. She has an MFA from School of Visual Arts. Her work has been recently included in exhibitions at NurtureArt, Rotunda Gallery, the Brooklyn Arts Council Gallery, DUMBO Art Under the Bridge Festival, all in Brooklyn, NY; the Bronx Museum of the Arts, Bronx, NY; Queens Museum of Art, Queens, NY; the Fox Art Gallery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; Gallery Aferro, Newark, NJ; the Center for Book Arts, New York, NY; and Mills Gallery at Boston Center for the Arts, Boston, MA. Her collaborative project with Naomi Miller, The Work Office (TWO), has been awarded grants from the Black Rock Arts Foundation, the Brooklyn Arts Council, chashama, and LMCC Swing Space.
