His artistic interests are predominantly marked by transformation processes between the individual and society.

He is recognized as a performance artist who is exploring the boundaries of his own endurance and is one of the most radical performers on the Croatian art scene. Marković deals with identity issues and the body as instrument of expression and experimentation. He often includes audiences in his work and collaborates with people from different social and professional background.
