She is a member of ULUBiH and ULUF. The exhibition was opened by Tatijana Mičević – Đurić, art historian who said that Selma’s paintings is largely dominated by female figures.
They are not actual people with their own names. They are women. Selma’s women show the femininity hidden in the deepest intimacy of time, going through the greatest trials and tribulations, said Mičević – Đurić.
She also pointed out that Selma bravely embarks on a large-format mastering. She bravely paints female figures by placing them in different positions, and sometimes in very unusual positions, exploring the correlations between figures and space.
