On the Wall with Nataša Konjević: Bosnia's Trailblazing Artist
In this episode, I have an exciting conversation with Nataša Konjević, a uniquely talented mural artist from Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
We discuss her journey from art student to becoming, in my opinion, the country's best female muralist.
Nataša shares her experiences painting colossal murals, her process of grid system, the challenges of weather, and the joys of making art accessible to the public. We delve into her views on gender roles in the Balkan patriarchy and her passion for uplifting female achievements.
Nataša also discusses her plans for more personal work and the potential for an exhibition.
