Vista Centro D’Arte di Alexander Jakhnagiev presenta Hysteria In Narrow Space opere di Betül Serbest a cura di Giorgio Bertozzi e Ferdan Yusufi
Exhibition Manifesto / Hysteria In Narrow Space
L’artista si concentra sulle ideologie sociali patriarcali dei suoi soggetti, assume una posizione contro le dichiarazioni maschiliste alzandosi in piedi per affermare la libertà individuale delle donne, nelle sue opere. In questo contesto, i personaggi e le figure nelle sue opere non possono che essere donne. Le sue immagini sono autoritratti o donne ritratte nel loro isolamento domestico senza privacy a favore del pubblico che le osserva. La drammaticità è rappresentata, nelle opere anche dalla costruzione compositiva che mira a mostrare la figura al pubblico da prospettive diverse. Questa situazione impedisce, alle donne raffigurate, purificate dall’erotismo, di essere un oggetto di piacere da guardare. Le opere in plastica devono essere valutate nell’ottica dell’ espressionismo perché riflettono le emozioni come la rabbia, l’odio, la solitudine e la ribellione del mondo interiore.
The artist who focuses on patriarchal social ideologies in her subjects, creates a stance against masculine statements by standing up for individual freedom of women in her works. In this context, the characters and figures in her works are women. Her pictures consist of self-portratits and she presents women portraits, who are isolated at home and stripped off their identity, to the audience. A dramatical loneliness is also represented in the works and composition constructs aim to show the figure to the audience from different perspectives. This situation prevents women figures, which are purified from eroticism, to be a pleasure object to be watched. The plastic works should be evaluated within the range of expressionist movement because they reflect emotions such as anger, hatred, loneliness and rebellion and inner world.
