detours while speaking of monsters

Deniz Şimşek

Deniz Şimşek studied Film and Art in Istanbul and Berlin. Delving into the interplay between socio-political phenomena and personal fragments, her films experiment with narrative devices that fracture dominant storytelling conventions, as part of a broader practice to reframe and challenge hegemonic narratives. Her narrators, be they landforms, mythical beings, or autofictional selves, operate in shifting patterns reminiscent of memories and dreams.
