  • Šejla Kamerić: EX YOU at Fotografiska, Stockholm

  • Back to news

On November 28, Fotografiska Stockholm opens its doors to EX YOU, the latest exhibition by acclaimed Bosnian artist Šejla Kamerić. Born in the former Yugoslavia, “ex-YU,” Kamerić’s life and artistic vision have been deeply shaped by the war and its aftermath. With raw, intimate, and unfiltered imagery, Kamerić describes a constant struggle to define herself in a patriarchal world. Her work intertwines deeply personal memories with collective experiences.

Join us for an artist talk with Bosnian artist Šejla Kamerić, held on the opening night of her exhibition EX YOU. The conversation is led by Sofia Liljergren, Exhibition Producer at Fotografiska. In EX YOU, Kamerić explores themes of identity, memory, and resilience – asking what it means to be erased from history, from belonging, from one’s own body. Born in Yugoslavia, her life and artistic vision have been shaped by the war and its enduring impact on identity, displacement, and survival. Her works are raw, intimate, and unapologetic; they don’t whisper, they demand to be felt.

On view: November 28, 2025 – April 19, 2026.

The exhibition is curated by Marina Paulenka, Independent Curator, on behalf of Fotografiska. The exhibition has been produced by Jessica Jarl, Global Director of Exhibitions at Fotografiska, and Sofia Liljergren, Exhibition Producer at Fotografiska Stockholm.
