Medina Bazarğali

Medina Bazarğali’s multimedia and installation works underline the irony and exaggerated politics found in the combination of new algorithmic structures, (post)-totalitarian regimes and globalization. Facing a digital revolution within the context of a national identity revival, their video reflects the engagement of a new generation of Kazakhs artists looking at ancient savoir-faire and patterns.
