CASTING CALL: the right hand of a man of african origin residing in, working in or transiting through Istanbul

mimiko

artist / photographer based in Istanbul

Besides producing photography series, I make use of artist’s books, text-based works and videos. My work focuses on gender identities & roles and socially constructed identities while attempting to shed light to some of the deepest drives, desires and fears of the human being through a subjective documentary approach. There is also an ongoing emphasis on the human body as the most common outward manifestation of the sexual, psychological, emotional and sociological identity.
