After her studies at the Academy for Visual Arts in Maastricht, she obtained her MA from Antwerp\u0026rsquo;s Higher Institute for Fine Arts. During this period she also took part in different artist-in-residence programs.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003eVisic works in a subtle way, handling the balance and the connection between the familiar and the strange, the known and the unknown. The apparently tame and pretty atmosphere of \u0026#39;domesticity\u0026#39; draws the viewer into the psychological spaces of personal intimacy, vulnerability and security. But the innocent-appearing objects of comfort and safety lead to a state of dramatic tension when their seeming calm is interrupted by our own acts of disturbing recognition. Visic is an artist with a marked degree of sensibility and a self-reflexive approach to her artistic practice.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003eThe starting-point for her oeuvre is the mobile and changeable aspects of place, and this leads to a series of thoughtful expressions investigating notions like home, domesticity and belonging. She connects these to subjects like personal space, intimacy, security, religion and culture. Visic inquires into these questions in their most obvious manifestations. She combines a painstaking use of techniques and materials to create stories that are at once convincing and unsettling. Her art is very plastic, figurative, even scenographic.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoreta Visic\u003c/strong\u003e (\u0026deg;1976) werd geboren in Kroati\u0026euml;, maar verhuisde als kind naar Nederland.

De ogenschijnlijk lieve en mooie sfeer van \u0026#39;huiselijkheid\u0026#39; trekt de kijker in psychologische ruimtes van persoonlijke intimiteit, kwetsbaarheid en veiligheid. Maar de onschuldig ogende objecten van comfort en veiligheid leiden tot een dramatische spanning wanneer hun schijnbare rust onderbroken wordt door onze verstorende herkenning. Visic is een kunstenares met een sterke gevoeligheid en zelf-reflexieve benadering van de praktijk.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003eUitgangspunt voor haar artistiek oeuvre is het bewegen en veranderen van plaatsen waarin ze een reeks van gedachten over thuis, huiselijkheid en thuishoren onderzoekt en die ze verbindt aan onderwerpen zoals persoonlijke ruimte, intimiteit, veiligheid, religie en cultuur. Visic bevraagt deze kwesties in hun voor de hand liggende verschijningsvormen. Ze combineert zorgvuldig technieken en materialen om overtuigende maar tegelijk ook onrustige verhalen te cre\u0026euml;ren. Haar kunst is zeer plastisch, figuratief, zelfs scenografisch.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"locations":[{"country":"HR","place":"","category":{"en":"Born in","nl":"Geboren in","fr":"Né à"}},{"country":"NL","place":"","category":{"en":"Lives in","nl":"Leeft in","fr":"Vit à"}}]}
