Artists in residence
Each year, the Cité internationale des arts welcomes more than 1,000 artists from around the world, offering them a space for creation, research, and exchange in Paris, in the Marais and Montmartre districts. Open to all artistic disciplines—visual arts, music, literature, film, design and architecture, performing arts, and curating—it enables artists to develop their projects in an environment that fosters experimentation and meaningful connections.

Visual arts
The Phrygian Goddess Cybele, among other things, is believed to be the goddess of cavities, voids, and hollow spaces. This makes Özgür wonder what hollow spaces may summon, hold, and signify. It resonates with how Ariana Reines describes poetry, making something out of nothing. These animate Özgür’s practice. He works with installation, performance, writing and image to meditate on notions of power – captivity, servitude, torture, play, eroticism. His work takes different forms from audio albums to spatial settings.
Özgür is a 2019-2021 alum of Rijksakademie van beeldende Kunsten. He regularly collaborates with friends, and is a member of the study group JamOnJamOnJamOnJam and the artists collectives (in hibernation) KABA HAT and BAÇOY KOOP (Printing, Distributing, Duplication Cooperative). He was conceived in İzmir and now lives in Amsterdam.
