My name is Mersud Selman, I was born in 1986 in Bihac where I finished secondary art school. In 2010, I entered the Academy of Painting in Sovilj where I was a highly respected student and praised for my paintings. I participated in several art colonies and workshops, had solo exhibitions exhibited alone in Bihac, Milan, Sarajevo, Banja Luka, and Vienna. Already as a small boy I was making a living by selling paintings.
My brother and I just finished a documentary film in Bosnia and Herzegovina under the name "We are humans not gypsies". The film is about the two of us and my family, a positive story of who we are and how we live. This year, in December, in Banja Luca will be the premier and next year, somewhere in August, the documentary film will be screened at the Sarajevo Film Festival.
From this autumn, I joined the RELP program, based in Budapest, where I will be learning English. The RELP program will help me to easily connect and communicate with people, especially when I will have further international exhibitions and of course, I would also like to help next generations to learn languages. My wish is to successfully finish the RELP program and to get into MA Art program.
