Raised in Ankara, Burçak Bingöl (b. 1976, Görele, Turkey; lives and works in Istanbul) has completed her art education at PhD level in the Fine Arts Faculty at Hacettepe University, Ankara. She also completed programs on Music at Ankara State Conservatory between 1985-91 and on Photography at New School, New York in 2009. She uses the processes of tracing, copying, and re-forming; her aim is to construct new sets of configurations by de-structuring familiar representations. Within this culturally and personally charged scope of examination, her works emerge through a constant re-working of images, objects, and forms, converging in a repetitive act where fiction and failure merge. As such, their architectural, sensorial, and conceptual relations to space open up a research field of visual exploration.
