Manca Krošelj is an artist from Ljubljana, Slovenia, working at the intersection of many interests, mainly illustration, visual communication and landscape architecture.
Her formal educational background comes from the field of landscape architecture. In 2017 she graduated at the University of Ljubljana, Biotehnical faculty, at the Department of Landscape Architecture, where she is currently employed as a researcher.
Manca’s focus has always been inclined towards exploring various ways of visual expression, either through the lens of scientific research or fictional narrative.
