MIDNIGHT

For her first exhibition, young photographer Berza Nur Ozen presents fragments of her nocturnal life within a nebulous collection of anonymous photos taken during nights out with friends.
A hundred nocturnal images float at the center of the room, intimate galleries of strangers. With suspended flashlights, visitors are invited to reveal these memories, now reduced to bodies with fragmented faces. On the stage screens, these crystallized faces become persistent… These images, once familiar to us, blur and reconnect with the fallibility of memory. This fallibility also holds the power to introduce mystery into the reminiscence of mundane moments that photography exposes in full clarity.
An exhibition that unveils the diversity of trajectories contained within the night, as well as their similarities, and questions the ways in which they are captured.
