482.We are visiting the artist Inci Eviner's workshop during our art meeting.
Inci Eviner's collection of works ranging from drawing and video to performance and collective practices consists of multi-layered works that take their source from drawing. The artist examines how subjectivity is established in her works, especially in which she deals with the politics of power and representation on the female body. The complex relationships that the artist Deconstructs between video technologies and traditional painting suggest a different way of perception. The pattern is at the center of Eviner's work; he defines the starting point of his practice as “expressions created with lines on paper”. He builds his artistic approach by wandering around in an unlimited visual language that spans a wide range from allegories, icons, drawings and mythologies from art history to contemporary ideograms and pictograms, and constantly enriches it. Eviner has developed a unique way of expressing the collective, political and sociocultural aspects of various states of femininity, gender and identity politics. Studying the historical, discursive and subconscious processes that affect our views on identity starting from childhood, the artist sees femininity as a field of unlimited possibilities that cannot be closed to a single image, conception. Based on everyday gestures, Eviner not only questions the forms of representation and the prohibitions that bring these representations to life, but challenges them.
