Rey Akdogan’s works often attend to the materiality of atmospheres that surround objects of consumption. Starting from materials used for display, she alters them through operations such as peeling, folding and subtracting, revealing their substrata and their inherent structure. She lays hold of the unseen experience as opposed to a standardized way of viewing things. The residues—pigments, hooks, metal clips, remains of foam and velvet—that survive her precise, almost archaeological removals transform the display supports into unexpectedly painterly forms that reveal the tensions between structure and chance, visibility and invisibility, surface polish and manual labor.

Recent solo exhibitions include terre, Galerie Anke Schmidt, Cologne (2025); Subtraction, Miguel Abreu Gallery (2023); Lost Record, Commercial Street, Los Angeles (2022); Subtractions, Galerie Anke Schmidt, Cologne (2021); Rey Akdogan, Hannah Hoffman, Los Angeles (2017); Faction, Miguel Abreu Gallery, New York (2017); and Rey Akdogan, Radio Athènes, Athens (2016). Akdogan was included in the 15th Baltic Triennial at CAC Vilnius, Lithuania (2024); and the XIV Bienal de Cuenca (2018). Plant Light Curtain, a limited-edition artist book, was published by Minerva Projects in 2023, and #46, a book of the artist’s work, was published by PPP Editions in 2012. Forthcoming in 2026 are solo exhibitions at Haus am Waldsee, Berlin, and Kunsteverein Gartenhaus, Vienna.

Several of Bia Davou’s works on paper from the 1970s translate circuit boards, though without any intention of creating an applicable model. Primarily interested in a poetics of communication, she created precise, freehand designs imbued with expressive qualities, often echoing musical notations, weaving and coding.

Her work was recently included in Radical Software, curated by Michelle Cotton at MUDAM, Luxembourg, and Kunsthalle Wien (2024); The Lips of History, curated by Isabelle Sully at Tale of A Tub, Rotterdam (2024); Frequencies (and atmospheres), curated by Helena Papadopoulos and Andreas Melas at Galerie Eva Presenhuber, Zurich (2023); Siren (some poetics), curated by Quinn Latimer at Amant Foundation, New York (2022–23); Frequencies I at Radio Athènes & Melas Martinos (2022); Bia Davou: Works on Paper from the 1970s at Radio Athènes (2020); Fate of a Cell at Melas Martinos (2020); and Documenta 14, Athens and Kassel (2017). In 2009, EMST – The National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens – presented the first major survey of her work, curated by Tina Pandi and Stamatis Schizakis.

Another Loser is a series of fifteen portraits created in late summer in Nicosia. The model is the artist’s sister, Korina, who frequently serves as her alter ego.

These silver gelatin prints merge black-and-white 35mm film with cameraless imagery, produced by placing stencils directly onto light-sensitive photographic paper.

Marietta Mavrokordatou shot each portrait from two slightly varied angles, subsequently exposing the images using two spiral-shaped stencils—one positive, one negative. The resulting collages were composed entirely in the darkroom.

Korina, embodying Marietta, appears caught in a spiral of introspection—stuck in a moment of emotional rewinding and replaying, revisiting fragments of a love affair in a looping, psychological sequence.
