Đejmi Hadrović - All About the Veil (00:01:57)
Production: Đ.H., 2016
Art students were asked questions while their body language was observed. Main purpose of the idea was to flm an experimental interview about the object called veil.

Lealudvik - Teufelskreis (02:25)
Production: Lealudvik, 2018
The video is an endless loop presenting a top-down view of an empty white surface, on which the naked protagonist crawls with obvious difficulty. Just before she disappears at the other end of the frame, a new instance appears, crawling to the other side with difficulty again. The overlap of the frames illustrates a vicious circle (Teufelskreis) from which there is no way out. (Source: DIVA Station) The video installation was part of the exhibition Lealudvik: As it is, so be it at Škuc Gallery in 2020.

Agnes Momirski - siXren (verbum medicinae) (37:00)
Production: MGLC Ljubljana, 2020
