Esra Nesipoğulları, 1991 Turkey, architect / self-thought multidisciplinary artist. Born and raised in Turkey. Resident in Mantua, Italy since 2017. After working two years in several architectural design studios in Istanbul, London and Mantua she moved to the art and curatorial field. Her works often respond to personal stories in the cultural and political contexts.
Contemporary art is to Nesipogullari ; rejection of consecrating anything to do with art and art per se, which is not complete without the viewer. Very personal response to the concerns of the present social, political world from the necessity of expressing oneself is the ultimate personal approach to her works. She is exploring different tools to translate that need of producing into a form. Storytelling, creating or deconstructing narratives is her medium to represent what she is living through. Contemporary art is giving a chance to build a dialogue between the viewer, curator and artistic ideas in the context of physical exhibition space and media. The art materials and Nesipogullari’s individual process transmit a sense of urgency and self-destructive discourses that manifests itself.
