Nedim Hadziahmetovic | Serbia

Nedim Hadziahmetovich was born in 1970 in the city of Negotin, then part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. From 1992 to 1997, he studied Sculpture at the University of Applied Arts and Design in Belgrade.

Art direktor and founder of BKBF movement (Bober Kunst Bildhauer Fabrik) in Križevci, Sloovenia, active with monumental public exhibitions, since 2018. Since 2024, he has served as the Head of the Sculpture Department at the University of Arts in Kosovska Mitrovica.

At the “Baku Steel Art 2025” symposium, Nedim Hadziahmetovich presented the work “Aquarius.” “In this composition, the body is represented through lines and vectors that synthesize both anatomical and geometric properties. In this way, a “golden ratio” is established between seemingly contrasting volumes, conveying to the viewer the beauty and fragility of life, together with the concepts, such as the memory potential of water and the “butterfly effect.”

In the geometric part of the composition — symbolically, in the torso of the Centaur — a water vessel is depicted, its form inspired by the tradition of Azerbaijani ceramics. This vessel symbolically represents the magical spark of life — the energy dispersed across the earth and the universe.”
