Efkan&Oemer

During the summer season, starting May 16, MASSOUMI Gallery takes on the role of seasonal curator for The Bodrum EDITION Hotel in Turkey, transforming the iconic property into a curated destination for contemporary art.
The collaboration opens with a focused exhibition by Hamburg-based artist duo Efkan & Oemer, whose latest works blend street culture, material experimentation, and minimalist precision — brought to life within the architectural elegance of the hotel.

Efkan & Oemer are a Hamburg-based artist duo whose work blends the raw energy of street art with minimalist abstraction. Drawing from graffiti culture, skateboarding, and contemporary design, their pieces are marked by typographic expression and material depth — often created using mixed media, acrylics, oils, lacquers, and Krink ink.
A unique signature of their practice is the use of broken skateboards as canvases — relics of motion, rebellion, and personal history. These decks are transformed into bold visual statements, celebrating imperfection and resilience. For Efkan & Oemer, each scar tells a story, each crack becomes part of a new narrative.
