Adelisa Selimbašić (b. 1996) is an Italian-Bosnian artist living and working in New York. In 2021, she graduated from the Venice Academy of Fine Arts with a Master’s in Painting. Her pictorial research aims to imagine a world in which the sense of inadequacy does not exist, opening to a nonconventional perception of the body. Through scenes drawn from everyday life and an essential figurative approach, the artist reinterprets the idea of femininity, focusing on the complexities of human experience, desire, tension, and the need for physical contact.

Her practice is based on a dense and almost tactile painterly presence, achieved through careful manipulation of color: working with a contained palette, Selimbašić mixes pigments directly on the canvas, allowing the tones to meet and transform, pushing toward a plasticity that challenges traditional representations of the female body. In recent years, she has presented numerous solo exhibitions in institutional and international gallery contexts.

Among her most recent solo exhibitions: When we become each other, curated by Rebis Rebis (Delfina Pattacini and Gaddo Amunni), Lubov Gallery, New York (2026); The Dancefloor, curated by Michele Spinelli, z2o Sara Zanin, Rome (2026); For My Eyes Only, Manifesto Gallery of Contemporary Art, Sarajevo (2025); The Space in Between, curated by Delfina Pattacini, Tommaso Calabro Gallery, Milan (2025); Dust Bunny, curated by Michele Spinelli, z2o Project, Rome (2024); Why Is It So Hard to Declare Yourself?, Galleria Ipercubo, Milan (2023); In parallel, Selimbašić has participated in numerous group exhibitions in Italy and abroad.
