About works: In a series of works that Suzy Hug Levy creates with stacks of paper, we witness that she shapes the material by wrinkling it consciously or randomly. Labyrinthine images reminiscent of the mineral, vegetal and biological realms influence our perception, leading to a cellular abundance and topographical reading. Rhythmic wrinkles and faults intertwined with dizzying shortcuts, reminiscent of the deepest folds and protrusions of our memories, buried layers that only a hidden tectonics can bring to the surface again; These formations also question our humanity. ​

  • FRANKIE SAYS RELAX SERIES
    Located in Istanbul, 34
    FRANKIE SAYS RELAX series. (Frankie Goes to Hollywood is a very popular British band popular. The group's 1983 debut single Relax was banned by the BBC in 1984 while at number six in the charts and subsequently topped the UK Singles Chart for five consecutive weeks, going on to enjoy prolonged chart success throughout that year and ultimately becoming the seventh best selling UK single of all time. ) According to the artist; The idleness save the world, everything will begin one day by not going to work. In ancient Athena, working was attributed only to the slaves. As for today, the monopolies who direct world politics and economy, do not eschew from provoking war for their own interests, and make people ill and then dooms to medicine have created their own modern slaves of consumption with their so-called aims of development, growth and welfare society.

  • Mind Games
    Located in Istanbul, 34
    Porcelain on granite Deniz Pireci's works; He tries to rediscover all the meanings contained in ceramics as a tool, to emphasize them even more, and sometimes simply to reveal them. As a tool, it is obvious that porcelain refers to fragility, craft, handcraft as well as mystery and the invisible. The use of porcelain in the field of contemporary art necessarily encompasses all these concepts, which it evokes as a material, within its scope. Pireci produces works that are included in many different trends with its approach to materials and art. At the same time, it not only questions our sovereignty over images, it creates an opportunity for us to lose it for a while. (Aysegul Sonmez) Deniz Pireci, who deals with issues such as migration, locality, identity, cultural difference and gender from different perspectives in her art practice, was born in Istanbul. She graduated, Ceramic Department of Marmara University Fine Arts Faculty. She completed her Master's Degree in Marmara University Fine Arts Institute Ceramic-Glass Main Art Branch in 2006 and still continues her work in her studio in Istanbul. Some of the artists works are on display at; Eczacibasi - VitrA Ceramic Art Studio, Korea Museum of KOCEF, Turkish...
