About the artist

Ahmet Rüstem Ekici (b. 1983, Adana) explores archaeology, the body, architecture and optical perception. A 2008 Bilkent University graduate, he draws on interior architecture and stage design, using augmented and virtual reality to approach space as a changing field of experience.

Queer memory and stories excluded from historical narratives inform his work. Since 2020, he has collaborated with Hakan Sorar on interactive projects connecting archaeological surfaces with digital images.
