Sena Başöz at the exhibition Bir Arada at Yapı Kredi Kültür Sanat (02/04/2023)


Sena Başöz’s solo show Possibilities of Healing is extended until May 31st. Curated by Didem Yazıcı ve Burcu Çimen, the exhibition brings together artists from different geographies with a shared artistic ground and similar research topics. Istanbul-based Sena Başöz and Jerusalem & Rotterdam-based Noor Abuarafeh work on the archives and construct alternative worlds where imagination and reality intertwine. Başöz is interested in how history is built, documented, and interpreted while creating surreal narratives where the body is at the center and images of possibilities to heal from individual and social traumas.

Sena Başöz’s performance, Slalom is reinterpreted using Yapı Kredi Culture and Arts’ archives. The performance deals with revitalizing institutional archives that continue to exist in a frozen state, moving against the forces of nature, although little time is left because of the climate crisis.
