The Global Villager
Infusing New York with a dash of his roots in Amsterdam and Istanbul, Oli Uygun merges fine art with new media theory to explore the dynamics of a hyperconnected world. Inspired by Dutch realism, Ottoman miniature painting, and the evolving landscape of new media, his dreamlike narratives question how we confront global challenges in an inequitable world.
