Gizem Akgönül (Istanbul, 1985), after studying Industrial Design in Toronto, returned to Istanbul and focused on philosophy and art practice.

Gizem Akgönül's works focus on art and design; It explores a utopian civilization through objects that question their reflections on contemporary culture.

The artist invites the viewer to think about this imaginary civilization she has constructed through the clues she gives with each piece and to create stories around it.
