Burcu creates works that deal with different aspects of everyday life. She works across both painting and sculpture to present subtle poetic verses on seemingly insignificant daily actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her observational works often reflect on idyllic and domestic interiors and spaces with uncanny tensions. Within Burcu\u2019s work there is a strong representation of conditio humana, as well as commonplace feelings and emotions. She explores the idea of feeling lost or as a stranger even in the most familiar situations. In this manner she addresses our solitude, social and individual displacement, as well as the relationship between the individual and the collective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her paintings have no ostensible narratives but are more like film stills, a suggestion for a storyboard, in which the viewer fills the details before, after and between each composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Born in 1979 in Ankara, Burcu G\u00f6k\u00e7ek graduated with BFA from Pratt Institute of New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
