After exhibiting during the 38th edition of Vendémiaires, an event which has just ended, the visual artist and milliner, who lives and works in Montpellier, is resuming her artistic residency at Maisons d’Emma.
It was when he entered the Fine Arts in Istanbul that Gül Pamuk began his research on Dadaism and their subversive collages, committed and freed from all conventions. Since this period, the artist has worked on cutting and collage techniques and material effects, enhancing them with oil paint, watercolor and pastel.
Tell stories
The starting point of her creations is a banal story about everyday life which she enriches with figurative scenes with multiple details in successive layers. In 2018, his collages show an evolution in his research on light and color. The backgrounds describe several levels of reading including allegories often tinged with humor and irony.
She uses her own photos which she mixes with printed images and different materials. Gül Pamuk likes to tell stories in his compositions with a style sometimes close to rococo painting. His assemblages swirl between lightness, joy and play of light to reflect a tragicomic vision of life. “I am in perpetual research and my artistic adventure takes the form of expressionist landscapes sensitive to the light coming from the memories of my childhood spent on the banks of the Bosphorus. “
