Oğulcan Kuş

Oğulcan Kuş (1993) is an Istanbul-based artist and graduate of Marymount Manhattan College with a degree in Studio Arts and Communications. Having immersed himself in the New York art scene for six years, working with institutions such as MoMA PS1, Oğulcan’s artistic exploration primarily revolves around geometric precision, and cartoon-like fgures, especially hands adorned with white gloves. Inspired by his experience as an art handler, these gloves have evolved into dynamic elements, adding an intriguing layer of mystery and symbolism to his work. Recently, Kuş has been experimenting with expanding his practice into the third dimension through manipulation of canvases and introducing new materials like wood. His art is a captivating blend of tradition and innovation, rigidity and whimsy, inviting viewers into a world of perpetual exploration.

Selver Yıldırım

Selver Yıldırım (1993) received her Bachelor’s Degree in Compound Arts Program at Yıldız Technical University. The artist has been working on many art projects and participating in group exhibitions since 2014. Currently, she continues producing plastic art pieces through painting and assemblage as well as 3D and digital practices in Istanbul. The artist, dealing with the alternative scenarios of the apocalypse and the “approaching end”, presents her pessimistic point of view in a playful and ironic manner. She discovers surreal spaces by creating new “dimensions” with light cracks, blurred lines, shadows and overlapping layers.
