Ajla Selenic

In her art work, Ajla Selenić is focused on spiritual and philosophical themes and the most essential questions of human destiny: the meaning of life, meaning of the creative work and its poetical and metaphysical essence, relation between creativity and freedom, the mystery of personality and time.

Her artistic process is based on an intuitive search and growth of inner consciousness, where the awareness of the essential ripen slowly into the art works. Choosing time consuming working processes, which demand great patience and consistency, is a statement of a deliberate rejection of the imposition of speed in the contemporary society and an expression of belief in a transcendental meaning of time.
