Protey Temen

Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist.

Protey Temen’s practice involves drawings, videos, books, and installations. Evolving visual systems are used to explore and visualize the intersections between real-life representations and abstract models.

The Inner School of Open Studies is a nonlinear and hermetic art project dedicated to the integration of synthetic methods for processing knowledge through language, calculations, and drawing. The project examines the relationships between these components, aiming to facilitate communication and understanding across different dimensions of time and space. It encompasses a variety of visual poetry, abstract compositions, and conceptual models, reflecting the artist’s interest to the dialogue between art and science.

“…a starting point for his works – real clusters where a multitude of micro-themes, connecting with each other, give substance to new considerations.”

by Chiara Spagnol for Galeria Corraini

“…By evoking the visual structure of formats that embody the knowledge frontier and produce credibility such as atlases and maps, he questions the prerogative of interpretation that is embedded in such.”

by Kurt Bille for 42 Magazine

“…gives life to an articulated cosmology on paper and on wood where the black background is studded with signs and symbols, clearly referencing the iconography of celestial cards.”
