Maja Hodošček

 Maja Hodošček (1984, Slovenia) received her master's degree from the Dutch Art Institute in Arnhem, the Netherlands. She uses video and installations in her work, exploring social relations in the context of the politics of cooperation and exchange, with a special emphasis on representation in relation to documentary. She focuses on the concept of work as a means of self-realization, the dynamics of work and the work process, their transformative potential, and the position of the subject within the organization and work structure.
