TEMPORARY FOLDER | 2026 | ONE-CHANNEL VIDEO

CURRENT SHOW

2026 Her Art In Action: A Home With A View festival. Gazelli Art House Baku

“Temporary Folder” looks at how a woman’s identity is shaped and constantly redefined by cultural expectations, migration, bureaucracy and digital systems. In this project, “home” is not understood as a physical place, but as something produced by rules, documents and technological structures. A woman appears here not as a fixed subject, but as a temporary record, a file that can be moved, updated, paused or erased.

Within this structure, home becomes a temporary state rather than a stable place. Female identity moves through layers of classification, never fully settling, always incomplete and in transition. It exists in a condition of waiting, suspended between being recognized and being erased.

The project reflects how many women today experience home as something unstable and conditional, a personal “temporary folder” where belonging is never permanent and never fully secured.
