Igor Simic was born in 1988 in Belgrade, Serbia. He graduated from Columbia University, New York, with a double-major in Film Studies and Philosophy. Igor’s student film Shelter was screened and awarded at several festivals. In 2012, he started the multimedia Shopping Cart Art Project. Besides film, Igor is a visual artist and writes an opinion column for a major Serbian newspaper.
