Srebrenica Memorial, Humanitarian Law Center – The exhibition ARCHIWAR by Jelena Jaćimović represents a way of resisting the dominant memory politics in Serbia based on nationalism and militarism that encompasses the denial of war crimes and genocide committed by Serb forces, glorification of sentenced war criminals and army, and instrumentalisation of Serb victims. You can see every artwork and info about it on archiwar.com. Jelena is currently planning and working on 15 more artworks that will be exibited in Srebrenica this year on Memorial day.

CINS – Jelena worked on the interactive website that analyzes the responsibility between institutions, police and brutal domestic violence against women (everything is based on a true case – Olga Lovric was murdered by her ex-husband in front of the Department of Social Services in Belgrade in 2017).

OXFAM – she made some illustrations for workshops that were focused on connecting migrants and people that live in small cities and villages in Serbia while playing sports together.
