About
Teuta Gatolin Teuta Gatolin is an intermedia artist based in Croatia, currently researching storytelling ecology, technology as a companion species, illusion and nostalghia. Her work is often process-oriented, spawning iterations of itself realized with other fabulators, and taking the shape of installations, text, objects, workshops, letters, costumes, virtual spaces and a range of mixes and negotiations between different media. She studied New Media Arts at the Fine Art Academy, and Journalism/Media Studies at the Faculty of Political Sciences, both in Zagreb, Croatia.
