Arna Mačkić is an architect based in Amsterdam. Since 2009 she is part of the core design team of RAAAF [Rietveld Architecture-Art-Affordances], and in 2013 she started a design research on the cultural heritage of former Yugoslavia: the monuments commemorating the victims of fascism during the Second World War and destroyed cultural heritage during the Bosnian war (1992-1995). Architecture has played a large role during turning points in the history of former Yugoslavia, both during the Second World War, when Yugoslavia was formed, as well as during and after the last civil war of 1992 - 1995. Arna Mačkić’s fascination for the monuments commemorating Second World War victims in Yugoslavia grew from here, along with her interest in the becoming and the functioning of destroyed cities as a result of the last civil war. Above all Mačkić’s interest centers around the aspect of time — around the way destroyed cities transform over time. Mačkić has been a close companion to Stroom 2019-2020 and takes part in the collective Bosnian Girl, that has organized the project 'Srebrenica is Dutch History'at Frmer Framed Amsterdam, Kunstfort bij Vijfhuizen and Stroom in 2020, in the context of Stroom's long year program 'See You in The Hague' (SYiTH).
