4 months on from this exhibition and I just wanted to say I'm deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to making this show an incredible experience.

Big love to you all. Unconditional love ‘For My Baba’ @slavicapiro
Some sweet little moments from Jess + Dan’s Maternity shoot back in May. Very happy and proud that I could document this special time in their lives for two of the most beautiful humans @dntgo_bacon_my_heart + @danofsteel87 🤍🤍🤍
If anyone is interested in their own maternity shoot let me know… I’m just not very good at postpartum shoots 😂😂

INSTALL CHAOS @airspaceprojects ‘For My Baba’
OPENING TOMORROW FRIDAY 6TH JUNE 6PM
For my Baba,
our grandmothers, our grandfathers, our grandparents, our stand-in wise, loving, and wholesome elderly figures.
The exhibition For My Baba delves into the themes of familial ties and cultural values, highlighting the artist’s strong connection to her Baba (the Croatian term for “grandmother”).
Through a series of works, the artist explores the significance of the elders in their lives and challenges societal perceptions of aging. It invites viewers to reconsider Western perceptions of aging, beauty, intergenerational relationships, and the passage of time. Pirovic recognises how fortunate they are in being able to document these moments with their Baba and the sense of loss of in not being afforded the same opportunity to capture the essence of their elders gone before. Visitors are invited to bring a photo - either of themselves with someone they love unconditionally, or simply of that loved one to contribute to a communal display within the exhibition space.
Snippet from my work “Croatia with Baba” (2023-2025)
I’ll be having a solo show at AIRspace @airspaceprojects in Marrickville and the Opening night is Friday 6th June (6-8pm)
So please come along and bring a picture of you with someone you love unconditionally or just them to put up on display in the space.
Full disclosure - there will be works that contain nudity - so if you don’t feel comfortable that’s totally fine.
