About

Published on the occasion of the exhibition:

Ali Altın & Özlem Altın
We sing with our light
Sep 5th – Oct 2nd, 2025
Caprii by Sies + Höke, Orangeriestr. 6, 40213 Düsseldorf.

Each of the solo and group exhibitions composing the dynamic, playful programme of Caprii is accompanied by a booklet, which offers an extended plane for holistically encountering the praxis of the respective artists.

The exhibition We sing with our light shows selected works by siblings Ali and Özlem Altin. The focus is on portraits of figures in undefined landscapes or environments. On display are both individual portraits and depictions of two figures whose relationship to each other is characterised by a certain ambivalent dynamic.


The booklet series is designed by Studio Thomas Spallek and is made using remnant paper stock sourced from Druckerei Kettler.

Ali and Özlem Altın make for an unusual sibling pair – born and raised in Goch on the Lower Rhine, with Turkish parents from Anatolia. Özlem points to illustrated manuscripts by the renowned medieval Persian physician and geographer al-Qazwini (d. 1283) as a source of inspiration – a key reference for how the world was viewed in the Middle Ages.[...]
