ARTIST STATEMENT:

Artist Statement: Nezaket Ekici

The idea, the thought, the draft are the bases for the
execution of my artwork. Ideas come from everyday
life situations, social and cultural atmospheres. Then
the idea expresses itself in the performances and
installation art. As well as this, I use the body as a
means of expression.

The artistsic idea is expressed using the body alone,
as part of the installation and within the context of
an audience.

The subjects I deal with are time, movement, space,
material, body, action/interaction. I try to create
works of art that leave for the viewer, free space
for associations and new possibilities. I take a
special situation from everyday life and without
illustrating this one for one; I place it into a new
context.

I aim to create art where all of the elements are
connected together to form a whole work of art (
Gesamtkunstwerk)
