I took part in the protests and artistic ferment that culminated in the fall of Miloševic in Serbia in 2000. Following the assassination of Zoran Djindjic in 2003, I made a broadcast on Radio B92 in Belgrade, which resulted in me having to leave Serbia. I arrived in Ireland in 2005, and subsequently spent almost three years seeking asylum, living in the Direct Provision system in the Old Convent hostel in Ballyhaunis, Co.Mayo. As a coping mechanism during this time I made a number of images of my surroundings and as well as photographs of fellow asylum seekers.
