Velma Babić is a multimedia artist working across performance, photography, and spatial practice.
Her work is rooted in questions of memory, displacement, and the entanglement of personal and collective histories shaped by war and its aftermath. Using her own body as a site of negotiation and resistance, she develops works that unfold through gesture, repetition, and the material presence of the body in space.
Rather than representing experience, her practice engages with what persists: traces, tensions, and forms of memory that resist visibility yet continue to act. Drawing on her background in literary studies, she approaches these conditions with a layered and precise sensibility, attentive to language, silence, and structure.
Her works operate with reduced means—often minimal in form, yet dense in implication—inviting a sustained encounter with questions of violence, endurance, and the politics of remembering.
