Fictional Reality
Kurgusal Gerceklik
Bashir Borlakov
Bashir has worked with photography since the beginning of his practice, constantly pushing the limits of this medium. The performative fictional photographs he takes are composed of occasionally autobiographic and absurd synergies, which are in fact mostly inspired by daily life. He has in the last few years been producing a series of photographs that are shaped under a shared concept and format. He creates photographic fictional compositions originating from the new capitalist life formed in his ex-socialist country in 1991. The first of these is the 'Panoramas' series which he produced in his hometown Karaçayevsk. And the more recent, is a collection of fictionassemblage panoramas that he displayed in his first solo exhibition in Gallery Nev, Istanbul in April 2009.
