Vanja Bucan was born in Slovenia and is currently based in Berlin, Germany.
Through her artistic practice, Vanja Bucan constantly fluctuates between documentary-based narrative of the social margins and staged images where she raises personal and collective questions about the unconscious, using visual metaphors. Her photography has surreal and emotional intentions and is devoid of factual representations of reality. She mainly focuses on the relationship between humans and nature and the way nature becomes dispirited while we are trying to constantly dominate it.
