Maya Kulenovic

Maya Kulenovic is a talenetd artist from Bosnia. She was born in 1975 in Sarajevo, SFR Yugoslavia (now Bosnia Herzegovina) but most of her life she lived in Canada and is considered a Canadian painter. Maya Kulenovic delivers a visceral visual suckerpunch with her series of paintings.

"I look into the darker side of humanity because I cannot pretend that I don't see it - and the only way to cope with it is to understand it better," writes Kulenovic of her work.

In particular, her painting of a crowd of naked howling bodies with eerily similar faces, entitled Chorus, disturbs as it raises questions about identity, conformity and voice.
