Alize Zorlutuna is a queer interdisciplinary artist, writer, and educator whose practice explores relationships between land, material culture, and the more-than-human through diasporic ways of knowing. Moving between Tkarónto and Anatolia has cultivated an attentiveness to sites of encounter, where bodies, geographies, and elemental forces meet in ongoing processes of negotiation and co-becoming. Drawing on material and relational traditions from the SWANA region, their work spans video, installation, ebru (Anatolian water marbling), ceramics, textiles, and participatory practice, bringing together diverse materials, methods, and geographies to consider place, memory, and relation.
Zorlutuna has presented work at institutions including the National Museum of Norway (Oslo), Mercer Union Centre for Contemporary Art, Agnes Etherington Art Centre, the Art Gallery of Burlington, Images Festival, Doris McCarthy Gallery, Plug In ICA, InterAccess, VIVO Media Arts Centre, Next Contemporary, Gallery TPW, Varley Art Gallery, XPACE, the Audain Art Museum, Stride Gallery, Access Gallery, The New School: Parsons, Mind Art Core, and Club Cultural Matienzo.
