In 2015, she founded Swimming Pool, an independent space for contemporary art, and in 2021 the Center for Social Vision, focusing on artistic research and community practices beyond the gallery context. She has curated over 30 exhibitions and projects and initiated platforms including Sofia Art Map and the Journal for Social Vision. She lives and works in Sofia.

During her residency in the region, STATIONEN in Svenshögen will co-host her stay, where she will spend part of her time.

Starting 2025 the biennial hosts curatorial residencies in the region, to facilitate meetings between artists and art professionals active in Västra Götaland and international curators with experience in situated research and biennial projects. The residencies are hosted with art organisers in the region and in 2026 we partner STATIONEN in Svenshögen, Galleri BOX and Konstmuseet i Skövde to welcome curators to our localities and introduce them to artists and art organisers in our region.
