Orcun Beslen
Artist from Turkey
Orçun Beslen is an interdisciplinary artist based in Turkey. His practice focuses on site-specific installations and interventions, where process functions as a constitutive element of the work rather than a secondary phase.
He works with fragile and everyday materials such as paper, textiles, and found objects, approaching them as carriers of spatial memory rather than representational surfaces. His works explore notions of trace, visibility, and the relationship between body, space, and time.

Location:

The frame of this work was found in Bomonti and painted; it is at least 40 years old.
I found a landscape image in an art magazine and created a collage by cutting and inserting a figure I had previously produced.
It is a new perspective on the old—an intervention.
