The internet and media culture define Malec&#8217;s art practice. Through artistic practice, she explores the phenomenon of human flaws as a side effect of the digital lifestyle or the ones emphasized by digitalization. She takes a creative and playful approach to represent this somewhat complicated social state of mind. Anja Malec graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, Croatia, and gained a BA in animation from Volda University College, Norway.<\/span><br \/><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.anjamalec.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.anjamalec.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No Strings Attached<\/p>\n<p>Anja Malec\u2019s No Strings Attached: a profound doubt explores the heavy use of algorithms in self-help apps and softwares found online.
