Senem Oezdogan
ARTIST
This work explores light’s transformative quality. Night becomes more than a measure of time—it is a space we move through, imagined rooms and quiet places of reflection we inhabit in memory, shaped by fragments of the past and traces of what remain unseen.
Senem Oezdogan (b. 1980) is a Brooklyn-based mixed media artist whose works meditate on the visual phenomenon of optical illusions through color and form.
Smooth gradients give a sense of volume to the bold shapes depicted in Senem’s work that are subsequently flattened by her illusionistic use of spatial composition. Her color palette is equally beguiling, disrupting foreground and background and constantly forcing the viewer to reorient their sense of perspective.
