The title of the exhibition, "Exposition Coloniale" instantly sheds light on the ramifications of the colonial era. This historical context set the stage for Denic's exploration of colonialist legacy and the persisting impact of cultural and ethnic stratification. Through his visual storytelling and symbolic and semiotic construction, the artist creates a picture of reality Through his significant and awarded artistic experience in theater, Denic used his skills to delve into complex and pressing issues. Complex structures and spatial conglomerates are imbued with the anxieties of the society in which they exist. Texts by Ksenija Samardzija, Stevan Vukovic, Christopher Yggdre, Frank Castorf
