MADE FOR THE CURIOUS
DUBROVNIK
24.6. - 30.6.
MADlokalZ is a platform that connects local talent with people who are interested in established, unknown and emerging local artists. Performances happen in unexpected places: bars, homes, studios, garages, ruins. Sometimes where the artists live, always where they belong.
The goal of this project is to create replicable, affordable, and effective template for representation of emerging artist throughout Croatia, by connecting artists, entrepreneurs, and the local government in a mutually beneficial and supportive relationship.
THIS YEAR'S LOKALZ
//MUSIC
MISTER DIRTY HAIRY
A wandering spirit. A jazz obsessive audio-outlaw.
Spotlight? Hell no. Find him digging through damp record crates in a foreign basement.
His story reads more like folklore than biography: exile, shadowy studios, and melodic offerings to the Machine Spirit. Haunted by the ghost of creativity, he wrestles between motion and stillness. What emerges is more than beats and music.
Witness the residue of a restless soul - a sonic shock that spreads love, peace, and a great vibe.
FIND HIM ON:
//ART
WANDA MITROVIĆ
An artist whose surreal, introspective figures offer a bold alternative to the sunset colored clichés of Dubrovnik. Her work is manifested subconscious, drawing on mythology, dreams, and psychological archetypes to explore the hidden depths of human experience.
In a city often defined by postcard-perfect imagery, Wanda’s art is a necessary disruption. It's sinfully haunting, boldly raw, and deeply personal. Her sculptures and drawings invite viewers to look within, to understand the assumptions they make when facing her art.
Wanda's often 'dark' expression is nothing less than a bolt of bright lightning piercing through the murky mud of artistic mediocrity, complacency, and inertia that settled on the shores of Dubrovnik with the tide of mass tourism.
FIND HER ON:
//DESIGN
MILAN PANTOVIĆ
A restless force of nature in human form, Milan moves through the world with one hand sketching ideas and the other dismantling the rules.
Creative, curious, and just the right amount of unpredictable, this is someone who doesn’t follow templates, he makes them. With a background that spans corporate design to scrappy startup branding, he brings both structure and experimentation to the table. He’s not afraid to test, tweak, and take creative risks, especially when the result is something that actually stands out.
From motion graphics to sound design, his work pulls from every corner of his toolkit—and that’s what makes it work. If you’re looking for fresh ideas and someone who sees the bigger picture (then draws all over it), simply shout: "MILANEEEEEEE!"
