Lie flat and take a break from relentless living
Presented by the Simon Lee Foundation Institute of Contemporary Asian Art, Özgür Kar’s first show in Australia is a multi-screen audiovisual installation which contemplates the cynicism and fragility of this present moment.
Working across video, sound, performance, and installation, Özgür Kar’s practice is an exploration of contemporary existentialism. Focusing on the interconnections between digital media and the human body, Kar’s installations feature black and white, minimally animated characters trapped within television screens who languorously deliver tales of desire and despair.
