While we still have to wait to open our doors for the group exhibition "BruocsellA" at K.L.8, we invited the participating artists to solo-exhibitions at our space.
Ilke Cop shows several large paintings and a new installation during "State of Things". Taking on questions surrounding the position of ‘the female’ and the role of women as people, artists and historical agents, Cop's practice creates a fictional universe where the laws and causal relationships that shape our society no longer apply.
Traditional techniques of oil painting and art history are embraced to venture into a new visual language of conceptually layered images. She likes to play with the innate desire for beauty, seduction and narrative to guide the viewer's eye.
