Šejla Kamerić is a versatile visual artist known for her multi-disciplinary approach, including film, photography, objects, drawings, and installations.

She has received widespread acclaim for the poignant intimacy and social commentary that have become the main elements of her work. Taking up subjects that arise from non-linear historical narratives, as well as personal histories, Kamerić focuses on the politics of memory, modes of resistance in human life, and the consequential idiosyncrasies of women’s struggle. By insisting on empathy as the founding communicative mechanism between herself, her subjects, and spectators, Kamerić both warns of and creates places of power and political arenas.

Her work is part of numerous international art collections, such as TATE Modern in London, Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville in Paris, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, Vehbi Koç Foundation Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul, MACBA Barcelona, MMCA-Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul, Korea, Contemporary Art Museum in Zagreb, Kontakt Collection in Austria, and ArtTelekom in Germany.
