Berkay Tuncay. Getting Away With It (All Messed Up)

About

The solo exhibition of the Istanbul based artist Berkay Tuncay at Display «  Getting Away With It (All Messed Up) » features his most recent research on the « relaxation videos » transformed through the process of poetry. Installed in the space, the visual poems relate to concrete poetry all the while opening the reflection on daily healing practices. Constituting a mass consumer product, countless videos of relaxation, meditation, or yoga lessons accumulated on the web have gained popularity among xenials, millenials or white-collar workers. They are the personal survival kit helping to control and minimise anxiety feelings. “A healthy mind in a healthy body” henceforth intertwined with our technological lives. During the Berlin Art Week, a night of reading performance will take place at Display.
