Untitled (Archive Croatian Home) is a site-specific work developed for the group exhibition Viewpoints at the Croatian Home in Split, Croatia (2024). The work is based on an archival photograph from 1910, depicting the façade of the Croatian Home shortly after its construction.
The image was divided into four fragments and transferred onto paper using the silkscreen technique. Instead of conventional pigment, the prints were made using dust collected from within the building itself, establishing a direct material link to the site. Owing to this unusual medium, the monochrome prints appear unusually luminous—ghostlike impressions of the original photograph—producing a spectral, almost immaterial visual effect.
The photograph was enlarged across four panels to emphasize scale and establish a more immediate, bodily relationship with the space in which it is exhibited. Through the use of site-derived matter and the fragmentation of historical imagery, the work explores themes of presence, absence, and the layering of institutional memory.
