Manja Ristić (Croatie), Nothing Has To Happen, Fortress Europe, 36’04, Radiophrenia Glasgow, Ecosse

The radio piece is based on mnemopoetic sonic narratives rethinking possible consequences of capital-driven geopolitics in interdependent global socio-economic turmoil perceived over several decades, and points at the dichotomy of EU policies in the grim reality of a 7-year-long migrant crisis. The work is followed by a photo archive of Belgrade-based journalist Lazara Marinković. Originally commissioned by Radiophrenia Glasgow in 2022.

Manja Ristić (1979), is a violinist, sound artist, published poet, curator, and researcher. 
Works and lives on the island of Korčula, Croatia.
