She worked also as a Costume designer on Nvotova’s second feature film Nightsiren, premiered at the FilmFest Locarno 2022 (Best Film Award).
Andrijana Trpković is a part of a theatre group Kolonie, whose productions often deal with actual political, social and cultural issues. One of its plays One night stand/up! allowed Andrijana to fully unfold her creative potential as she debuted as an author with this quirky and authentic work based on her personal war experience. Her second play Mixed Feelings about interaction with machines and transformation of humanity is in process and part of her current research.
Andrijana continues experimenting with the new forms and aesthetics of contemporary theater, audiovisual performances and installations and splits her professional life between Film and Theatre in Czech republic, Slovakia, Serbia and German speaking countries.
