Özgül Kahraman

Yeniköy, September 2020

Özgül Kahraman completed her undergraduate degree in sculpture and ceramics, master’s degree in compound arts, and proficiency in art in sculpture. In her works focusing on the body, Kahraman explores the social and technological environment that negatively affects human life. Her works focus on depressing and destructive effects of consumption-oriented life, the artificialization of living spaces, the normalization of violence and the perception of beauty imposed by capitalist system. Her recent works focus on the possibility and impossibility of communication. This series of works, built within the framework of the Braille alphabet, questions the limitations of a person’s relationship with his/her environment, based on the experiences of visually impaired individuals to perceive their environment.
