Smirna Kulenovic is a Bosnian transdisciplinary artist, director, researcher, filmmaker, lecturer, and a PhD candidate at the University of Arts Berlin. Her work spans contemporary performance, theatre, and dance, with notable contributions that explore the intersection of art, ecology, and embodied memory.
