Jovanova has performed, exhibited and lectured widely in the USA and Europe. In Macedonia, she is working as a freelance artist and teaching at NYUS Skopje, Communication and Media Studies Department. She currently lives between UK and Macedonia.
Her research project aims to explore properties and interactive aspects of embodied media environments. Moreover, this project examines the digitally mediated interactions between the analog entity of the human body and its digital representations. For the purpose of her research she navigates the screen as a fuzzy border that engages constant transition: offline-to-online, signal-to-sample, analog-to-digital. Finally, her focus is how and where the display screen can be used as a site where real-time motion graphics visualization can be displayed and interpreted by different audiences and communities.
