"Adžijina 11 a user’s manual: an artist’s book is the final part and a sort of synthesis of the eponymous project realised in 2016 as part of the Umjetnici za kvart (Artists for the Neighbourhood) program, which consisted of an audio tour of the Adžijina 11 apartment block and a wall drawing at BAZA. The title references Georges Perec’s Life: A User’s Manual, in which the author detailed the lives of the inhabitants of an apartment block situated in a fictitious Parisian street, at number 11. Unlike Perec’s novel, Adžijina 11 a user’s manual deals with the history, spatial characteristics, social structure and the immediate surroundings of a non-fictional apartment block built in Zagreb at the beginning of the 20th century. The portrait of the apartment block, in the form of drawings and texts, is based on the tenants’ stories, archives and other diverse materials, and provides insight into the history and the present state of the micro-location while also reflecting the broader social and political changes that have taken place in the region during the last hundred years or so."

"Knjiga umjetnika Adžijina 11 način upotrebe završni je dio i svojevrsna sinteza istoimenoga rada realiziranog tijekom 2016. godine u okviru programa Umjetnici za kvart koji se sastojao od audio-ture po zgradi u Adžijinoj 11 i zidnog crteža u BAZI. Naslov je referenca na roman Život način uporabe Georgesa Pereca u kojem autor pomno opisuje život i stanare zgrade u imaginarnoj pariškoj ulici na broju 11. Za razliku od Perecova romana, knjiga Adžijina 11 način upotrebe bavi se poviješću, prostornim karakteristikama, socijalnom strukturom i neposrednim susjedstvom jedne stvarne stambene zgrade izgrađene početkom 20. stoljeća u Zagrebu. Njezin portret u formi crteža i teksta, nastao na temelju kazivanja stanara, arhivskih i drugih raznolikih materijala, ne samo da daje uvid u povijest i sadašnje stanje te mikrolokacije nego i reflektira šire društvene i političke promjene u posljednjih stotinjak godina na ovim prostorima."
