Janca is working across painting, computer art, object-making, and robotic constructions. She graduated in 2020 with a Master’s degree from the Intermedia Department of the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. Her interdisciplinary practice explores the borderlands of fine arts and science, and as a co-creator she engages with contemporary music. She investigates how the latest media, technical possibilities, and artistic processes interconnect, approaching universal questions through her individual, introspective lens.

Her practice often gives form to entities that resist definition — amorphous, shifting figures emerging within evocative spaces or cages. These qualities are particularly characteristic of her Pacamorf project, which began with a single dream: over time, space and figure evolved through repeated material interventions, gaining their own distinct presence and story. The project unfolds as a nonlinear, cross-disciplinary narrative across paintings, objects, 3D models, sculptures, and robotic figures, allowing viewers to experience the story from multiple perspectives. Emerging from this dream and shaped through a combination of materials, media experiments, and technology, her works explore how perception and empathy shape identity. Through hybrid forms and inventive processes, her work creates a dialogue between Other — embodied in Pacamorf — and the external world of everybody, space, and objects, emphasizing the dynamic and interconnected relationship between unknown entities and their environment.
