Kristina Tica (*1995, Belgrade) completed her BA in Painting, University of Fine Arts and MA in Digital Arts, Faculty of Media and Communications in Belgrade and an MA in Interface Cultures at Kunstuniversität Linz. She was a guest student at Central Saint Martins, UAL and Slade School of Fine Art, UCL.
Currently, she is pursuing her practical and theoretical PhD research at the intersection of critical AI and Law at the Metaverse Lab [LIFT_C] at the Johannes Kepler University Linz, and she is a Lecturer in Feminist Hacking Strategies for the MA Postdigital Lutherie at the Tangible Music Lab / Kunstuniversität Linz.

Her practice is focused on practical and theoretical research in machine learning and critical AI. Using machine learning algorithms to create her works, she is addressing and questioning aesthetic and ethical elements of the implementation of such tools, following the current innovations in automated image-making and image-reading processes.
Her body of work explores semiotic keys and visual languages in different media, such as painting, video, installation and generative new media art with elements of interactivity.
Tracing the impact of emergent technologies in popular culture under critical theory and philosophy in media and arts, her work activity spans through various disciplines - from visual arts, to coding, writing, and music.

Her works have been exhibited at festivals such as Ars Electronica (AT) (2020, 2021, 2022), Speculum Artium (SI) (2020, 2021, 2022), European Open Science Forum Trieste (IT) (2020), The Wrong (2017, 2019, 2021). She is the recipient of the art+science AI Lab Award (RS) 2020. Her work has recently been presented in The Practice of Art and AI published by Hatje Cantz. She currently lives and works in Linz.
