OĞULCAN KUŞ

2D

Ogulcan Kuş (Istanbul, 1993), who moved to New York in 2011 to receive hİS education, graduated from Marymount Manhattan College and completed hİS undergraduate education at the Department of Creative Media and Studio Art.

It shows the diversity of Kuş's works, from acrylic to sculpture, from encaustic to film. Postmodern separation blends with Turkish identity and American popular culture, which is analyzed in detail. The artist currently continues his work in Istanbul.

Ogulcan Kuş produces to record his experiences; While doing this, he prefers the simplest and most colorful way possible.

It is reflected in his works not only physically but also when viewed in dreams or abstractly. Close attention is paid to patterns, vibrant colours, and mysterious and intriguing images linked to the subconscious. These images can be as concrete as a pair of hands wearing white gloves or as abstract as a group of colors. The artist, who thinks that all of his ideas are connected to the subconscious, practically undertakes to fill the gaps between the concrete and the abstract.
