| Bio | Cihad Caner [TR] is a visual artist living in Rotterdam. His recent works focus on immigration, cultural identity, reality, counterfeits and production of space. Caner creates a visual by forging the borders of photography and video for a personal interpretation of how humanity can view its changing world amid its ever-evolving environment. He invites viewers to share his experiences by the reproduction of natural and found objects. These objects hold a powerful force of attraction: a moment of uncertainty between what is forged by the artist’s hands and what exists naturally. |

Abstract Violence is investigating the impossibility of representing violent images and how we interpret them within the time of the image culture. Caner uses the footage and objects that he has collected in Syria during the recent war, to create new videos and 3D scanned-rendered objects, as well as transparent sculptures in order to produce different realities.
