Archival Pigment Print, 60 x 48cm, edition of 5
Turkish-born artist Güler Ates works in a variety of media including video, photography, printmaking and site-responsive performance. Her evocative images merge Eastern and Western sensibilities to explore, in her words, ‘the experience of cultural displacement’.
Güler works with models draped in richly-coloured veils throughout her artistic practice. These mysterious figures are often photographed as if quietly passing through architecturally lavish interiors, in locations chosen for their links to colonialism and ‘the East’.
‘Within and Without’ is one of a series of limited edition prints made during an artistic residency in Rajasthan; the location for this image was the City Palace in Udaipur. The rich colour of the theatrical veil relates to the intrinsic role that colour plays in India, from coloured cities such as blue Jodphur, to the extensive dyes and pigments produced across the country.
Purchased works are usually despatched within three working days.
