SANATORIUM presents Christiane Peschek’s first solo show in Turkey entitled OASIS between the dates February 4 and March 13, 2022. OASIS stands as a potential sanctuary at the end of the Anthropocene, a safe space where a nonbinary, value-free and inclusive corporeality is living. OASIS is a post-body spa, where self-care practices meets cyber-humanism, playfully stimulating awareness of expanded corporeality in the digital field.
The human being in their digitally expanded existence is polymorphic - they contain multitude of manifestations and shapes with a vivid spirit. Realms of existence in the digital world are not subjected to the same laws as those of the material space where bodies are neither bound to limited shells nor subject to gravity and require a different attention than their fleshly counterparts. Peschek believes that this expanded virtual existence also needs a revision of its spaces for relaxation and care. With OASIS, the artist aims to create a physical as well as virtual space that moves between the material and the digital, where physicality is combined with a maximum of consciousness.
