Corç George Demir
Born in Cologne in 1991, Corç George Demir is a research-based interdisciplinary artist.
In his visual and theoretical practice, he explores both collective and individual constructions of the self in an attempt to subvert dominant narratives through his autoethnographic approach.
His contributions include international exhibitions and publications in the arts and sciences. He is currently a doctoral candidate in artistic research at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. In his PhD project “Ancestral Junctures: on the expansion of ancestral mythologies”, he looks at the transformative potential of decentralising nation states and biological family lines and on focusing instead on queer and labour lines of ancestry as a way to expand the mythological notion of our origins.
Çorc George Demir is a resident at the Tarabya Cultural Academy from February 2025 to May 2025.
