Exhibition "The Room"

“I wanted my own words. But the ones I use have been dragged through I don't know how many consciences.”

Jean-Paul Sartre, The Wall

Can’s Art Studio

Starting to paint at the age of 2 and giving himself the name "Koko" the artist known as Can's Art Studio (Koko) invites viewers to contemplate the meanings he presents through his works rather than his essence, without revealing his identity. Constructing an imaginative world with independent choices, the artist positions himself closely to Sartre's definition of freedom, engaging in a questioning of existence and values. Establishing connections between his paintings and his own words (some of which are previously nonexistent), the artist, in his creative process primarily focused on acrylic works on canvas, makes the world perceptible through abstract tendencies. The artist's works, which include elements of catharsis and Oedipal references, surprise viewers with the artist's creation of relationships in a spaceless depiction, evoking dancing colors in the cycle of time.

The exhibition titled "The Room" takes visitors on a journey into a mysterious and vast world shaped by the artist's free choices, within a small room transformed into the artist's studio. “The Room" exhibition, centered around themes of freedom, solitude, loneliness, and selfhood, invites the viewer on a discovery that leaves them alone with their own perceptions.
