After finishing her graduate studies at The Faculty of Applied Sciences (VIST) in 2018, she finished her master studies in Photography at the Academy of Visual art and Design in Ljubljana in 2022.

Her book Plant-Based is one of the photobook winners at Belfast Photo Festival (2025). Mucik is also one of the finalists of Kranj Foto Fest (2023), the recipient of the Float Photo Magazine curator's award (2022), a special mention by Envision Arts (2020) and the runner-up in the category »Artistic concept« at Rovinj PhotoDays festival (2018).
