Suat Öğüt

Suat Öğüt (b. 1986, Diyarbakır, Turkey) is an artist and filmmaker based in Amsterdam. His interdisciplinary practice explores how recent history shapes the present through personal and collective narrative-building. By engaging with monuments, archives, and everyday structures, Öğüt challenges dominant ideologies and reframes heritage as a living, culturally embedded practice. His work also explores non-linear perceptions of time, emphasising the urgency of the present.

Öğüt studied at Marmara University and completed a postgraduate program at HISK in Ghent. He was nominated for the Young Art Support Amsterdam Awards (2020) and received the Akbank Contemporary Artist Prize (2013). From 2015 to 2022, he co-founded Corridor Project Space, an independent art initiative based in Amsterdam.
