Açıkekran New Media Arts Gallery continues to expand access to the field of arts with the “In and Out” exhibition comprised of the videos works of two artists. In the scope of the show, Sibel Kocakaya’s video entitled ‘Now, Here’ will be available to artlovers at nine branches of Şekerbank in eight provinces, in addition to the Açıkekran New Media Arts Gallery.

Sibel Kocakaya, who, after completing her Master’s at the Marmara University Fine Arts Institute, united the viewer with venue-body concepts in her video work to use her production as a play area and include it in her own experimental process, and Fitore Isufi/KOJA, who continued working on her art after completing the Kosovo Art Academy and whose works, various national and international projects, individual and collective shows and presentations have been displayed in various workshops, will meet art lovers at the Şekerbank Açıkekran with the exhibition titled “In And Out”. Kocakaya and Fitore Isufi/KOJA, who unite at the tides formed between the point of appearing and disappearing, present a curation of four videos. Sibel Kocakaya’s “Now, Here” and “Room, Sound,” and Fitore Isufi/KOJA’s “No Comment” and “Under the Veil” videos are presented at the exhibit. 

The anthology under the curatorship of Ali Akay brings to viewers the dilemma, change and motion between moving and being still. The outside sounds and humming elements that the artists use can be experienced within an experimental framework, as elements that make a reference to the modern times of the 20th century and question the meaning of daily life that has become ambiguous.
