Sema Bekirovic makes photos, videos and installations whose key elements are coincidence and the friction between nature and culture.
An important theme in her work is the tension between obtaining and the letting go of control. She creates a situation for something to occur and lets coincidence decide how the work develops. Another often seen theme is "nature vs culture", wherein nature can be seen as the uncontrollable factor in our existence which we try to control by means of culture.
