Isil Ezgi Celik.
I am an art curator and researcher (PhD in International Collaboration in the Arts), and the founding director of the London-based art platform capitArt and the x-media curatorial initiative capitArtX.
My practice moves across philosophy, art, and digital culture, working with questions of how techno-capitalist conditions shape creativity, subjectivity, and social relations. I am particularly interested in the ethical and aesthetic implications of emerging technologies and their role in transforming relations and in processes of cultural homogenisation.
My work develops through experimental, decentralised, and process-based approaches that foreground transformation over optimisation. I initiate curatorial and research projects that create space for dialogue across differences, rather than consensus.
My life and work span London, Tokyo, Mumbai, Paris, Istanbul, Yangon and Belgrade, shaping a transdisciplinary and situated way of thinking and creating. Alongside curating, I work through writing, dialogue, and multimedia art as interconnected modes of inquiry.
