Dominik Gadže (HR)

Dominik Gadže (b. 1996, Zagreb) has been fascinated by robots and technology from an early age. Watching Star Wars movies, he started dreaming about working with robots, so his first works were robots made out of boxes. Attending the Vrapče Nursing School, he was surrounded by medical devices and observed the interaction between machines and humans while sketching the apparatuses. After school, he noticed his fascination with sketches of devices, their forms and functions, and realized he wanted to work with development technologies, which is why in 2019 he enrolled to study Design at Algebra University College. That same year, he joined the Medium Movement collective, involved in combining technology and art through numerous projects: a group exhibition and party (a combination of visual arts and music in a gallery space), 3D screenings and installations (Lauba – House for People and Art, Zagreb, 2020), closing of the Non-Aligned Boutique Art Fair at Lauba, a pop-up party as part of the Ljeto u Tehničkom programme and a party at HALA V of the Nikola Tesla Technical Museum with a performance by dance group Maze-ing, accompanied by 3D screenings and a performance by DJ Viduka. Gadže continues with his research in communication between the mechanical and organic world, which has resulted in the following works and inventions: The Specs, Laser Lip Balm, Handheld Super Computer and many others.
