Ahmet Ogut works with a broad range of media including video, photography,
installation, drawing and printed media. His work often borrows from the
experience of everyday life, which he observes and then amplifies and alters
to expose its many contradictions. He weaves reality and fiction, success
and failure, human tragedies and comedies to explore the failings and gaps
of political and social structures.
Pilvi Takala works with narrative forms such as video, artist books and
performance. Her work is based on subtle interventions in specific social
settings, such as a work place, a local cafe or shopping mall. By breaking
the rules in a subtle but constructive way Takala's actions reveal, question
and eventually reinvent shared truths.
