Dora Ivković (b. 1997) is an artist from Zagreb, Croatia. She first discovered her passion for art when she enrolled in the High School of Applied Arts and Design in Zagreb, where she completed her degree in sculpture. After a one-year break, she initially pursued a major in fashion design at the Faculty of Textile Technology but quickly decided to prepare for the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb. Upon successfully passing the entrance exam, she enrolled in the New Media and Animated Film programme.
Motivated like never before, she adopted the stage name "Cicko" and expanded her creative pursuits beyond animated films. She ventured into illustration and street art, beginning with small projects such as exhibiting her work at events organised by a group called "Support the Work of Young Artists." In 2021, she took part in a mural painting project as part of the OHOHO! Festival. In 2022, her short animated music video for the song "I opet snivaš" by the band Kaleido was selected in the SUPERTUNE category at the Supertoon Animated Film and Comics Festival. This recognition was followed by her first solo exhibition at Gallery Sivoj in the same year. In 2023, she took part in a group exhibition titled "ONE SU TU" in Varaždin.
