Women and Wiliam Morris as Muse

Sandra Tyler, The Woven Tale Press, 24 April 2023

Nikoleta Sekulovic is an artist and mother, presently living and creating in Madrid. Born in Rome to a German mother and a Serbian father, she has worked in London, Paris and New York, exhibiting across these cities. 

 

The Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery presents The Strawberry Thief, an exhibition of new paintings by the Barcelona-based artist, Nikoleta Sekulovic. The Strawberry Thief brings together a collection of paintings of the female nude set against the rich patterns of William Morris’s textile designs. Deploying friends and family members as her ‘muses’, Sekulovic confounds conventional expectations of the female nude with her tender depictions of her chosen subjects – all of whom are mothers, like herself.
