Depicting everyday scenes in her native Turkey, Tuba Öztekin Köymen presents universalizing themes highlighting human commonalities regardless of race, gender, religion, and national origin. With their enigmatic quality, these haunting images draw viewers in, causing them to create meaning derived from their own experience. This mid-career retrospective highlights recurring themes within her various photo-projects while displaying her experimentation with the medium, ranging from multiple exposure pinhole photographs to digital images. Exhibition curated by Katherine Siegwarth.

Born in Turkey, she graduated from the Department of Graphic Design at Bilkent University (1995), later receiving a MFA in Photography and Digital imaging at the Maryland Institute College of Art (1999).
