"The works go beyond the expected aestheticization of formalism's contemporary neo-minimal. [...] Reflecting on Ozsoy's personal and artistic independence, Pg Art Gallery exhibits works that enable viewers to go beyond their physical limits, evocative of meta-bridges.
Dr. Marcus Graf
Pg Art Gallery hosts Gunnur Ozsoy's solo exhibition, "Spiritual Experiences," in which the artist employs a striking combination of formal beauty and conceptual depth.
Included in the exhibition are Ozsoy's marble and large-scale polyster sculptures that draw on the dichotomies—abstract and tangible, corporeal and spiritual—in addition to a video work. The artist transforms various dimensions of life and death into fragile narratives.
Instead of creating spaces within the material, Gunnur Ozsoy interjects space with mass. The vieweres experience her unusual visuality through her idiosyncratic organic forms. The exhibition marks the artist's first use of marble. The sharp borders of marble, in combination with its weight as a material, denotes a formalist approach. The artist combines this formalism with references to the quotidian routines/cycles. Ozsoy's contradictions invite the viewers to a "incorporeal" /spiritual experience.
