Vesna Petresin

Born in Ljubljana (Slovenia), Vesna Petresin lives and works between Paris, London, and Ljubljana. She is a transdisciplinary artist and researcher whose work engages time as a central material. Known as a “time-architect,” her immersive and experimental practice blends sound, light, rhythm, movement, space, text, and code. Through performances, installations, and audiovisual compositions, she explores embodiment, transformation, and the thresholds between the intimate and public spheres. Her approach merges theoretical research and sensory experimentation, drawing from the fields of performance, architecture, science, and philosophy.

She has exhibited and performed at major international venues including Tate Modern, Art Basel Miami, Royal Festival Hall, Royal Academy of Arts, Venice Biennale, Cannes International Film Festival, Institute of Contemporary Arts London, Sydney Opera House, Vienna Secession, World Architecture Festival, and Beijing Architecture Biennale. Her work was recently displayed at the Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova in her Synaescapes exhibition.
