In 2009 she had a solo exhibition at Gallery 44A İstanbul.
Canan Bozbağ’s sculptures focus on an encounter where matter and shadow mold into one single body. This encounter with spaces enable us to discover the illusive and the real, but also with death and annihilation regardless of how we continually try to escape.
Bozbağ questions the concept of space and its boundries; andthis space allows the viewer to perceive and experience sculpture within space, and space within sculpture.
The exhibition 'Yekpare' can be seen at Milli Reasürans Art Gallery between May 10 - June 2, 2012.
