"The Best Art In The World"
Nada Prlja is a practicing artist. Her practice is focused on the exploration of political systems, migration and issues of injustice and inequality in contemporary society. Prlja constructs site or condition specific, socially engaged works of art, aimed at dissecting contemporaneity and the burden it imposes. Her professional career was initiated in London, where she lived and worked from 1998 to 2014. She currently lives between Copenhagen and Skopje. Prlja represented the Pavilion of the Republic of North Macedonia at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019. She took part in the Innsbruck International Biennial in 2020.
