Saša Tkačenko currently lives and works in Zagreb, Croatia. His artistic practice engages spaces and their transformation when exposed to other media, as their architectural features interact with sculpture, video and installation. Tkačenko’s works thus create dynamic situations in which the audience plays a constituent part, often reflecting on motives and stories from popular culture and contemporary human life. He has been exhibiting since 2008, including shows at institutions such as Centre Pompidou Paris, Museum of Contemporary Art Belgrade, mumok – Museum Moderner Kunst Vienna, Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb, MNAC – National Museum of Contemporary Art Bucharest, Times Museum Guangdong, ACP – Australian Centre for Photography Sydney, Belgrade City Museum, Künstlerhaus Bremen, UnionDocs Center for Documentary Art New York, Castello di Rivoli – Museo di Arte di Contemporanea Torino. Tkačenko participated in artist-in-residence programs at ISCP in New York and T.I.C.A-AirLAb Tirana Institute of Contemporary Art. His works were shown at art fairs such as Art Geneve, Rewriting our imaginations organised by LISTE, Flash Show Budapest, Not Cancelled (online). His works are in collections of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade and Nobel Collection of contemporary art.
