Çiğdem Emir, 1978 doğumlu. Fotoğraflarında genellikle kadın portreleri üzerine çalışıyor. Çalışmalarında ki portreler bilinçli olarak ki anlık duygu durumlarını temsil ediyor. Fotoğraflar üzerinde ki manipülasyon, sıradan olana karşı tepki. Onun bir portresini, değişen duygu durumlarının ortaya çıkmasıyla ortaya çıkıyor. Kendimize itiraf edebildiklerimiz, dünyada olan biten Herşeyi görme biçimlerimiz, farkında ya da farkında olmadan. Fotoğraflarını, içimizdeki varoluş biçimlerinin görünümleri olarak tanımlanıyor. Fotoğraf çekimlerinde, modellerin makyajını da kendisi yapıyor, içinden gelişmiş gibi. Eserleri hem Türkiye’de hem de uluslararası alanda   sergileniyor, galeriler ve sanat fuarları aracılığıyla.

 

She was born in Istanbul in 1978.
She’s usually working on woman portraits in her photographs. Portraits in her work represent the state of the unconscious moment. The manipulation of photographs, the reaction to the ordinary. It reveals each portrait as a reflection of the emotional state of the moment. What we can’t admit to ourselves, the way we see everything that’s going on in the world, whether we’re aware or not. She defines her photographs as the reflection of the forms of existence within us. In photo shoots, she does the makeup of the models herself, as she comes from within. Therefore her contribution is crucial in every detail that goes into making the perfect photo, such as finding the right setting and the essential lighting. Her work is widely collected and exhibited both in the Turkey, as well as internationally, through galleries and art fairs.
