The representative of the Slovenian young generation of artists BridA / Jurij Pavlica, Sendi Mango, Tom Kerševan question the artistic content and research the contemporary society with the help of art and science. Since their formation during studies at the Academy of Fine Arts of Venice in 1996 BridA has developed a series of artistic projects on the international level. Selected by Charles Esche BridA is taking part at the 6th edition of the U3 Triennial of Contemporary Slovene Arts in 2010.


The artistic production of BridA is based around videos, graphic arts, painting, photography and multimedia installations. The continuous passage from the two-dimensional artistic surface in a tri-dimensional space is reversible and alternating. For BridA the search for the path and the process of creation is more important than the final product. The processes of research and technological application are part of the artistic creation and are oriented in an artistic production, which acts as an independent body and can be self-updated and self-completed. The BridA combines technology and artistic thought.

Up to now none of the three members of the collective wanted to work as an independent artist stating that: “Working within a group opens new or different boundaries. All we do is always in the spirit of the group. We almost never operate individually, which could be compared to some kind of perpetual artistic action. Our experience is in itself somewhat particular and in such a manner could not exist individually; therefore we could say that working as a collective has an impact also on the personal life of each individual. Within a group there is a great potential that enables us to operate effectively from idea to realisation in a very rapid manner. This fact is especially evident when searching for new ideas that are immediately confronted and analyzed thus enabling a more interesting turnout of idea. Similarly with the actual realisation process where the teamwork is even more effective.”

In October 2006 BridA cooperated with the ZKM Zentrum fur Kunst und Mediatechnologie in Karlsruhe, where it developed the project Modux. In February 2007, after being invited by the European commissioner for science and technology Janez Potočnik, BridA presented its projects in Brussels within the framework of the initiative for the support of science and technology. In June 2008 they took part in the artistic residence in Fondazione Ratti Como. In September 2008 BridA exhibited their project Modux 3.4 at the Ars Electronica festival in Linz. In September 2009 they presented their project Trackeds Como at the Ljubljana International Biennial of Graphic Art curated by Božidar Zrinski. In October 2009 BridA presented their work at Columbia University in New York and the University of Maine. Since February 2009 they are partners in the Time for Nano project launched by the European Commission.
