Nikoleta Sekulovic, an artist and mother currently residing in Madrid, reshapes the tradition of Odalisque portraiture by portraying her subjects as both parents and muses. In her artwork, she employs a muted palette, devoid of props and distractions, aiming to accentuate the female form in its pure authenticity, free from external expectations and traditional expressions of sexuality. Sekulovic's unique approach embraces imperfections, allowing the viewer to connect with the subject on a deeper level. Her looser lines evoke a sense of irregular beauty, reminiscent of the artistic styles of Egon Schiele's Vienna and the minimalist studies of Gustav Klimt. Each pose captures the individuality and personality of her models, emphasizing the importance of authenticity and self-expression. Born in Rome to a German mother and a Serbian father, Sekulovic has showcased her work in London, Paris, and New York, enriching the global art scene with her distinctive perspective.
