Iskra Vukšić is a Croatian-Dutch artist and writer based in Amsterdam. She has an educational background in art history and urban culture studies, and holds an MFA in Designing Democracy from the Sandberg Instituut. Through her investigative visual and text-based practice, she reflects on social and political realities, which she examines through observations, notes, anecdotes, and interventions.

She is interested in landscapes in their role as economic and political territory, how this changes them, and how cultural practices mediate our relationship to such change. One of her projects is an ongoing artistic research on mass tourism on the Adriatic coast, where she peels back the layers of the landscape to find the tension between its commodification and the ancient fire regimes that resurface within this lucrative Mediterranean fantasy.

She experiments with a range of mediums as ways of constructing narrative; from cyanotypes and miniature sculptures to installation-performance, guided tours, a videogame, and publications. In both personal and collaborative work, she has explored topics such as speculative futures for controlling voter apathy, waiting as a form of labour in precarious work, and the transferral of generational knowledge within rakija-brewing in the Balkans.

She is part of Timeis.capital, an audiovisual research collective that revolves around autonomous artist-run practices; collaborates on a project basis with Ekaterina Volkova as the artistic partnership vukšić&volkova; and teaches at the designLAB department of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
