Cagla Demirbas
Cagla Demirbas (b. 1997, Ankara) got her BA from Istanbul Bilgi University’s Media and Communication (2020) and Film and Television (2022) departments as a salutatorian and a valedictorian, respectively.
Inspired by psychodynamic psychotherapy and the history of analog photography, her work acts like a "backup memory" that deals with serendipity and parapraxes found in the everyday rhythm of life.
Her series “Media Omitted” (2022), consisting of cross-processed double exposures that show the "what-if"s of a relationship, was awarded second place in the "Best Series" category at the 2023 American Photographic Artists (APA) Awards, and was nominated for Best Landscape at 2022 Head On Photo Awards. The same work was exhibited internationally including at the Pinakothek der Moderne, Czong Institute for Contemporary Art, Mall Galleries, Der Greif, the Month of Photography Denver, Foto Forum Santa Fe, Pingyao International Photography Festival, and Mixer Arts. In 2024, the series was included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Avant-garde.
Her other work has been featured in various platforms like Association for Visual Arts, Royal Birmingham Society of Artists, Photopia Cairo, Design Festa Gallery, TRT World, Ka Space for Visual Culture & Artistic Thinking, and Contemporary Istanbul.
