Danica Dakić's Zenica Trilogy at Bosnia Pavilion explores post-socialist transition through video and gilded shovel.

In 2019, Danica Dakić showcased her work, Zenica Trilogy, at the Venice Biennale, representing Bosnia and Herzegovina. This three-part video installation delves into Zenica's evolution from a socialist industrial hub to a society reshaped by conflict, highlighting class awareness through its architectural landscape. The first piece, Zgrada (The Building), is an essay film featuring Zoran, a theater employee, who intertwines personal narratives with the deterioration of the Bosnian National Theater. Scena (The Stage) portrays a young woman sprinting across the theater's stage, symbolizing the stagnation in post-war Bosnia. Lastly, Čistač (The Cleaner) follows brothers Adil, a war refugee promoting organ donation, and his sibling, a street cleaner, critiquing the remnants of Cold War modernism and the shift in socialist narratives.
