Art School Is A Scam On Saturday

Peeling Back Layers of Existence in a Captivating Art Display at Deaf Shop Gallery

Damla Mcphee is an artist from Istanbul who has made Chiang Mai her creative playground. Delving deep into the mysterious realms of human existence, she brings her unique artistic interpretations to the public in a new exhibition entitled Art School Is A Scam opens this Saturday, September 30th at Deaf Shop.

In a world cluttered with the ordinary, Damla's work stands as a beacon of introspection, nudging onlookers to question and ponder deeper aspects of self-identity and existential suffering.

Housed in the cozy confines of the Deaf Shop Gallery, the exhibition promises to offer a multisensory experience. With a repertoire that spans drawings, mixed media paintings, video, film photography, and evocative poetry, Damla intricately weaves tales of surrealism, nudging viewers into realms often unexplored. Each piece, an echo of her own experiences, resonates with her observations and innate perspective on the world.

Having previously showcased her art in group exhibitions like 'E/A' at Den Art in Antalya, Turkey, Damla is now ready to mesmerize audiences with her solo venture titled, "Art School is a Scam". A bold proclamation, yet one that hints at the unconventional, avant-garde essence of her work.

The event is set to kick off at 6:30 pm and will wrap up by 11:00 pm, giving art enthusiasts ample time to lose themselves in the ethereal tapestries of Damla's creations. The inviting poster, crafted meticulously by @iremuygur, is mesmerizing.
