BIO/CV. Jane Efremova, artist and curator based in Belgrade, Serbia

Jane Efremova (b. 1994) is a visual artist and curator from Moscow, Russia, currently based in Belgrade, Serbia. She works with photography, video, and performance to develop her personal projects.

Jane uses methods of deep presence, spontaneity, and performative acts to engage with her subjects and explore themes of closeness, embodiment, and movement. Her projects are often site-specific, as she examines how the environment influences the body and its connection to a place. She actively participates in contemporary dance workshops and incorporates her somatic experiences into her art.

In 2018, she graduated from the Academy of Documentary and Art Photography Fotografika in Saint Petersburg. In 2021, she completed the master's program Curatorial Practices in Contemporary Art, a collaborative educational project by Garage Museum of Contemporary Art and HSE in Moscow.

Jane has participated in group exhibitions both in Russia and internationally. Her personal project, One-on-One, was exhibited at FFTN Gallery in Saint Petersburg in 2018.

She is a co-founder of the self-organized initiative Smena, which aimed to support young Russian artists. In 2019, she co-curated Photobookzineprintpressfest, the first photobook festival in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
