Doğu Özgün's "Night Rehearsal" focuses on strategies to reject and escape from the built identities imposed by micro and macro power centers around race, gender, species and class-based categories. The struggle to escape from the "houses" referred by these power centers can be expressed as a state of alertness by developing animal instinct against the anthropocene age. These strategies are reconstructed in Özgün's paintings based on the way they are seen as acts that are specific to the 'nature' of animals.

The exhibition is an attack on promises of happiness, age / gender-specific teachings and memorized future plans that depend on the approval of majority. The works try to leave the gender roles (“The Coward House”, 2019), the pragmatic diplomacy of power (“Tik-Tok”, 2019), the hypocritical advocacy of morality (“Sterile House”, 2018) and the direct connection between properties and personal will (“Dale Cooper”, 2019).

In parallel with the production style of Özgün, sculptures ("Saddle", 2020) and fragrance placement, as well as penture, examine the forms of taming relationship established by man himself and nonhuman animals.
