Suat Öğüt (Diyarbakır, Turkey, 1986) is an artist based in Amsterdam and Istanbul. His interdisciplinary practice explores how recent history shapes the present through personal and collective narrative-building. By engaging with monuments, archives, and everyday structures, Öğüt challenges dominant ideologies and reframes heritage as a living, culturally embedded practice. His work also explores non-linear perceptions of time, emphasising the urgency of the present.

Öğüt studied at Marmara University and completed a postgraduate program at HISK in Ghent. He was nominated for the Young Art Support Amsterdam Awards (2020) and received the Akbank Contemporary Artist Prize (2013). From 2015 to 2022, he co-founded Corridor Project Space, an independent art initiative based in Amsterdam.

Most recently, his works featured in Framer Framed’s exhibition Wild Waters: Dams and And Deltas After Modernity (2026) on the inextricable links between water, colonial expansion and territorial exploitation.

Expositie: Wild Waters

De tentoonstelling samengesteld door Àngels Miralda onderzoekt water als iets dat onmisbaar is voor het leven, maar ook als een middel waarmee macht wordt uitgeoefend over mens, land en natuur.
