Martch Art Project is pleased to announce Intraface, Zeynep Beler’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition explores how digital interfaces shape our ways of seeing and experiencing images. Drawing on visual material sourced from the internet, Beler translates blurred frames, loading delays, and censorship filters—details we often overlook—into painting, slowing down the rapid tempo of online visual culture.
Intraface refers to an interface within an interface — an inner passage that can remain open or closed. On this layered surface, where different media such as painting, photography, cinema, and computer screens intersect, each image functions both as a frame of its own and as a reference to prior media; past and present continuously overlap.
By making visible the persistence of cinematic language—particularly montage—in contemporary interface design, the exhibition reveals a structure in which images are continually interrupted, circulated, and coded. Through overlaying and repeating fragments, Beler transforms them into dense, pixelated textures, exposing the latent abstractions of digital processes — how attention and desire are managed on our screens.
In subjecting compressed visuals and split-second commands to an act of “decompression,” Beler turns them into durable, material images. Intraface invites viewers not only to reconsider what they see but also to reflect on how moments of looking and waiting are shaped by software and the speed economy of the internet.
Zeynep Beler’s solo exhibition Intraface will be on view at Martch Art Project from October 31 to December 21, 2025.
