Asja Mijović, Montenegro
|
Asja Mijović is a visual artist and curator from Podgorica, Montenegro. Her practice spans sculpture, installation, and video, grounded in material experimentation and the poetics of decay. Much of her inspiration comes from chance encounters—moments stumbled upon in transit, when the body is still but the world moves. She seeks out these encounters through long train rides, aimless walks, and a belief in the luck and intuition of movement.
She received an HMC scholarship to attend Ashford School in the United Kingdom before earning dual bachelor’s degrees from Tufts University: a BA in Philosophy and Civic Studies, and a BFA in Studio Art from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts. She later studied at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris through an exchange fellowship and was awarded the Joyce McDaniel Prize for Excellence in Sculpture. Asja is passionate about collaboration and regularly works with artists across mediums on curatorial, music, and film projects. She has co-curated exhibitions in Germany, Montenegro, France, and the United States. |
