Šejma Fere is a visual artist. She collects used printed images and packaging and develops collages and assemblages that are the stage for stories about economic conditions, fragmented reality and the multiplicity of space. Her works reflect on the instability of information and the absurdity of the economy of images based on templates, clichés, and symbols. Using the stream of consciousness method, she plays with new uses of found material, emphasizing the potential of an alternative narrative.
