Selma Selman

Selma Selman (1991) is from Bosnia and Herzegovina and of Roma origin. In her practice, she strives to protect and enable female bodies and foster a multifaceted approach to the collective self-emancipation of oppressed women. Selman’s search for a pragmatic, contemporary form of political resistance stems from her own experiences of oppression of varied directions and scales. Selman is also the founder of the organization “Get the Heck to School”, which aims to empower Roma girls across the globe who face social ostracization and poverty.

For the forthcoming publication Playing Constant: The Only Constant Is Change, Selman contributed installation photographs. Playing Constant is a publication by Jap Sam Books in collaboration with Zippora Elders and Fondation Constant, reflecting on the Constant 101 project, due spring 2025.​​​​​​
