Background
After her studies of painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana Zvonka Simčič has exhibited her work via installations, video, performance and photography since 1988. Since 1998 she has been engaged also in the experimental ethno musical ensemble Uluru.
In 2001 an artistic duo Zvonka Simčič and Tanja Vujinović established Automata Institute, a production platform that produced several collaborative projects (video art, digital photography, video and sound installations, Internet multimedia installations). Some of their most important projects were Hardbody (2003) which combines various media and content; the series Plasma (2003), a perfume art project constructed from elements of fashion and glamour out of material that documents media scandals; documentary style digital photographs Allergies and others. Projects were often thematically linked with research of the human body and physicality, especially representations of disciplined bodies (the project Dinamo, for instance) and social manifestations of sexuality, as well as with the world of mass media, disclosure of ideologisation, social conventions, and the narrations of Western culture. Their works have been included in collective exhibitions such as the Euroscreen21 project, Zero Visibility, Theory Multimedia NetNoise and Web Biennial Istanbul. The opus was summarised in a monograph Collaborative Works by Tanja Vujinović, Zvonka T Simčič, Jan Kušej, and Dunja Kukovec in 2004.
In 2006 the platform was divided into two art production and research non-governmental institution, the CCC (CrossCommunityCreation) run by Zvonka Simčič and the Ultramono Institute) run by Tanja Vujinović in collaboration with Jan Kušej.
