Motivated to keep select narratives relevant, Radujko re-contextualizes poems and works of non-fiction as fine art and artist books for new audiences. Agriculture, the mother of all arts, and “making special," a human behavior described by the scholar Ellen Dissanayake have influenced and guided her work.
Radujko received her Masters in Library and Information Science from Rutgers University (2005) and a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from William Paterson University (1999).
She is currently working on two manuscripts. One is a children's picture book about her immigration experience. The other is a anti-memoir influenced by David Markson's, This is Not a Novel which channels her professional life in "Libraryland," as well as surrealism, the book as object, becoming a self-taught artist in 2017 and the personal papers of her paternal grandfather. In the process, she became attuned to her experience of aging (as a kind of wilderness) and developed insights into one's essential identity's usefulness (life up to the age of 20) in charting it.
