Mia Akrap

Mia Akrap was born in 1995. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb in 2020, where she is currently undertaking her postgraduate studies. She works primarily in the fields of painting and ceramics, and through her practice she explores questions of identity, personal and collective experience, transformation, and transgenerational legacies. Her work focuses on the processes of memory, the build-up of layers of experience and archetypal models, in which materiality and form become bearers of symbolic and affective meanings.
