Behind the photographs

Dejan Petrović

A documentary photographer exploring the relationship between people, place, and cultural memory.

Born in Novi Sad, Dejan has lived in Belgrade, Vienna, and Bratislava. His photographic work moves between everyday life and the larger histories that shape it.

His projects follow the bridges of the Danube, Vienna’s ballrooms and the work behind the performing arts, the atmosphere of Prague and Myanmar, and lives unfolding in Srebrenica.

Through Lighthouse, his ongoing work extends into long-term cultural documentation, including Istria: A Cultural and Culinary Atlas.
