Speaking of the oceans

Selma Kozak is an artist, graphic designer and academician working in the area of public art, video installation and projection. The artist is inspired from activist art based on human being emotions, emotional and psychological problems, social issues, feminism, environmental problems and the abuse of natural environment. While creating the artworks, the artist uses language and links usually between typography (discourse) and photography and so, the protagonists of her works are those three elements.  

Speaking of the oceans

Speaking of the oceans is a projection show that consists of rhetorical discourse. The work includes eight different card designs which are distributed among the audience before and during the show. With the text-based public art project, the artist intents to establish a sincere and direct bond between visitors and the oceans through art and language. The work aims to offer poetic content about how the oceans are vital for all living being, our planet and our interconnected ecosystem, and how human beings have a profound effect on extinction of the oceans and marine pollution.
