Lara Kamhi is a filmmaker, visual artist, and writer whose work explores the intersections of cinema, consciousness, and technology. Kamhi’s practice investigates the spectral relationship between image, memory, and perception.
Her body of work spans film, installation, and expanded cinema, often merging analog and digital processes to evoke immersive psychological landscapes. Kamhi’s early site-specific installations established her as a distinctive voice in Turkey’s media art scene, recognized for her experiments that push the cinematic experience beyond the screen.
She has exhibited and presented her work at major art and film institutions internationally and has delivered talks and masterclasses on the future of visual experience, post-human aesthetics, and the politics of image-making. Her writings and video essays have appeared in notable art publications.
Alongside her artistic practice, Kamhi has taught Visual Culture at Istanbul Kültür University, where she developed innovative curricula bridging film theory, philosophy, and experimental image-making.
Her ongoing projects continue to blur the boundaries between fiction and perception, reality and representation—approaching cinema not merely as an art form, but as a living inquiry into what it means to see and to be seen.
