Es wird im Zuge ihres Aufenthalts eine kleine Präsentation in der Jan Arnold Gallery geben. Die beiden Künstlerinnen werden weiters ihre Spuren an den Wänden rund um die #Streetartpassage hinterlassen.

I have a dream, I’m coming back.
Exhibition by Jurena Muñoz Lagunas and Gamze Yalcin

December is the month of closing of the year and at the same time welcoming a new year.
Best timing for both artists to catch a breath for a moment, close and open new pages after a long year, finding new joys in their creations here in Vienna. During December, residence artists Jurena and Gamze explore possibilities to create different dialogues between their work and the studio’s framework inside the MuseumsQuartier with all the museums and cultural institutions forming one of the biggest cultural complexes in the world.

“I have a dream, I’m coming back” is the result of both artists’ artistic experimentation, cultivating differences, similarities and shared influences in a cohesive use of the space.

Jurena “Jumu” (1990, Hannover) is an artist based in Berlin.
Jumu’s world is a connection between humanity, empowered women, the spirit world, and nature.
Paintings, masks, ceramics, costumes, murals and more, Jurena has a wide, perpetual multidisciplinary exploration in her art practice. Her work is characterized by a colorful palette, bold shapes and her Latin American roots.

Gamze Yalcin
Gamze (1987, Istanbul) is an artist based in Berlin.
Gamze’s work is an ongoing study of landscape and color. Her artistic practice includes painting and color search. It evolves from the dream/landscape paradox, shaping unknown/timeless spaces and creating semi-abstract compositions in the form of stories.

Both artist were invited by Sebastian Schager / Artis.Love / Streetartpassage for the Q21 Artist-in-Residence program.
